The Jets recently re-signed Santonio Holmes to a new five-year contract worth about $50 million, and are closing in on a deal with their free agent CB Antonio Cromartie, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The Jets signed former Giants WR Plaxico Burress to a one-year deal on Sunday, as well as backup QB Mark Brunell, P Chris Bryan, and DT Kenrick Ellis. ... Tomlinson is entering the final season of his two-year contract with the Jets. He is expected to be more of the third-down back with more of the carries going to Shonn Greene. The offense is planning to give Greene more than 300 carries this season. ... For what it's worth, Mark Sanchez offered to rework his contract as well, if it meant the team would be able to sign big-time players.
