JETS SIGN TY LAW

Posted by Michael David Smith on November 10, 2008, 6:07 p.m.

Just in time for Thursday night’s Jets-Patriots clash, a player familiar to both teams has returned to the NFL.

Adam Schefter of NFL Network is reporting that free-agent cornerback Ty Law reached agreement on a one-year contract with the Jets today and is expected to play Thursday night against the Patriots.

“This is going to be different playing Thursday night against the Patriots, matching up against my former team and the players I’m used to practicing against,” Law told Schefter. “I know they’re going to throw at me, but I welcome the challenge – bring it. I got the tricks for you.”

Per Schefter, Law will play some cornerback and some safety. Having played for Jets coach Eric Mangini before, it shouldn’t take him long to get acclimated.

Law played for the Patriots from 1995 to 2004. He then spent 2005 with the Jets, and 2006 and 2007 with the Chiefs. Although he started every game from 2005 to 2007, he has been out of the NFL since the end of the 2007 season.

Law knows the system, but this is a real indictment for Miller and Lowery. If Mangini thinks and old Ty Law who takes far too many gambles and abandons his scheme responsibilities on a regular basis is better than Lowery, who I thought had played pretty well for the most part... that speaks volumes.

I cant see Law playing ahead of Lowery, who I think has been very solid this year considering its his first year and that he gets thrown at a lot with Revis on the other side. Drew Coleman has been horrible at nickelback, and Law should be an upgrade there. I could see the Jets play Law a little in a rotation at S with Elam? I think Law could be used the way the Jets have used Barrett as a CB/FS
