Santonio Holmes' Reveals Full Extent Of Last Year's Injury
(6/17 12:31 PT)

The Facts:
Following up on a previous item. ... Neither Holmes nor New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan is confident of the wide receiver's availability for training camp, much less the season opener. Now we have a better idea why that's the case. Holmes revealed that his Lisfranc fracture was diagnosed as a Grade 4 injury, which is the most serious variety. He had a joint separation and a muscle tear in the middle of his foot, according to ESPNNewYork.com. A plate was removed in a March follow-up surgery, but two screws will remain in his foot permanently.  Reported by NFL.com

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Although Holmes has set the beginning of training camp as his "target date," none of the Jets beat writers has been buying it as a realistic timetable. He's yet to begin running and cutting. In fact, Holmes hasn't even disclosed whether he has started jogging. With Holmes' Week 1 status up in the air, the Jets are "looking at all possibilities" at the position after a disappointing showing by their wide receivers in last week's mandatory mini-camp. Free-agent options include Brandon Lloyd, Austin Collie, Laurent Robinson and Chaz Schilens. As NFL.com's Chris Wesseling suggests, Lloyd easily is the most attractive option.
