Darrelle Revis was elusive Thursday when asked if he was satisfied with his contract.
"I am. I'm cool. I signed it two years ago," said Revis, adding that it was a good deal "at the time." Although Revis is attending workouts, he wouldn't commit to arriving to training camp on time. He expects his agents to be in contact with GM Mike Tannenbaum over the next couple of months. May 10 - 1:40 PM

Darrelle Revis led the NFL with a passer rating of 45.6 on throws into his coverage last season, according to Pro Football Focus.

Revis allowed just 41.2 percent of all targets to be complete, including just 26.1 percent in the fourth quarter (for a passer rating of 1.3). Revis also recorded 20 total pass breakups while allowing just one touchdown on 85 targets. A true shutdown corner, Revis has been arguably the NFL's most valuable defensive player since Rex Ryan took over the Jets three years ago.

Darrelle Revis is unhappy with his contract, and didn't rule out the possibility of a holdout when speaking to reporters Monday.

"I just don't know," he said. "I'm not saying I am going to holdout. I'm not saying I'm not." Revis held out for over a month in 2010 before signing a four-year, $46 million extension. Only 26 and the NFL's the most dominant player at his position, Revis is upset after watching inferior Brandon Carr and Cortland Finnegan land huge contracts. He has plenty of leverage and likely won't be satisfied until he's the league's top-paid cornerback, perhaps by a large margin.

Jets CB Darrelle Revis insists coach Rex Ryan didn't know the extend of the locker room discord behind the scenes last season.

"It was just so much stuff. I’m really not going to get into it because some of the stuff is real deep," said Revis. "But he didn't know a lot of the things. He wanted people to say things to him. But obviously it didn't come out. It came out on the field (late in the season)." Ryan has to do a better job of staying on top of the locker room. He'll enter the 2012 season on the hot seat.

Opposing quarterbacks have a 2.9 passer rating this season when throwing at Darrelle Revis.

Revis has allowed just 10 receptions and no touchdowns while covering the opponents' No. 1 receiver on a weekly basis. It's an unheard of pace, even by Revis' high standards -- and certainly puts him in the conversation for Defensive Player of the Year. Stevie Johnson is next up on Revis' hit list.

According to Pro Football Focus, quarterbacks throwing at Darrelle Revis have a passer rating of 3.6 through four games.

Revis has allowed just three receptions in four games. He draws NFL and fantasy receiving leader Wes Welker in a prime Week 5 matchup. Welker averaged 6.7 receptions, 58.3 yards, and 0.7 touchdowns in three meetings with the Jets last year.

Jets CB Darrelle Revis won’t shadow any particular Jaguars wide receiver in Week 2.

Revis and Antonio Cromartie will start off playing the left and right side, respectively. The two may adjust as the game wears on like they did in Week 1 against Dallas. Mike Thomas will get plenty of targets - especially with Marcedes Lewis out - but shouldn't be played as more than a WR3.

Darrelle Revis was forced from Sunday night's game against the Cowboys with leg cramps.

Revis missed three plays while being attended to on the sideline before heading to the locker room. Like Cowboys WR Dez Bryant, he ended up missing only a series.

Coach Rex Ryan confirmed that Darrelle Revis (hip) will be fine for Sunday night's opener against the Cowboys.

Both Revis and Miles Austin (hamstring) will be dealing with minor tweaks as they square off. Neither injury should be a major factor.

Darrelle Revis has been dealing with a hip flexor since Monday.

Revis picked up the minor injury during the third preseason game against the Giants. "We're just going to monitor it. I mean, I can play. I'm 100 percent, it's just a little sore and bothering me a little bit," Revis said. The shutdown corner has a date with Miles Austin, Dez Bryant and the Cowboys in Week 1.

According to Manish Mehta of the NY Daily News, Darrelle Revis is enjoying the "best camp of his career" this August.

"Scary thought," adds Mehta. Revis made a "leaping pick" over Santonio Holmes in Wednesday's practice, and he will continue to shadow No. 1 wide receivers in man coverage this season. First up for Revis will be the Cowboys, and we suspect Miles Austin with Antonio Cromartie sticking mostly to Dez Bryant.

It remains unclear whom Jets CB Darrelle Revis will be shadowing in this evening's AFC Championship game.

Most believe he'll be covering Hines Ward, who was limited to two catches for 34 yards in the Jets' Week 15 victory in Pittsburgh. However, after Revis shadowed running back Danny Woodhead for much of the Jets' Divisional Round win, don't be surprised if he's not always where he's expected to be tonight.

After being limited on Thursday, Jets CB Darrelle Revis fully participated in practice on Friday morning.

Hardly a surprise, as Revis was never believed to be in any danger of sitting out this weekend. He'll reportedly be shadowing Hines Ward on Sunday, whom he limited to two catches for 34 yards in New York's Week 15 win in Pittsburgh.

Jets coach Rex Ryan revealed that he is considering resting Darrelle Revis (questionable, hamstring) in Week 17.

"Yeah, there could be a chance of that. If that happens the other guys have to step up and go," Ryan said of Revis and Antonio Cromartie (questionable, groin). "There's a chance they're not feeling better with a hamstring and a groin or whatever than it would make more sense if we had them healthy for the playoffs." Kyle Wilson and Drew Coleman are next on the depth chart.

Jets CB Darrelle Revis (probable, hamstring) was limited in Friday's practice.

The good news is that Revis will be able to play against the Steelers. The bad news for the Jets is that Revis has been a shell of himself when trying to play at less than 100 percent this season. The Jets have yet to reveal how they plan to account for Mike Wallace and Hines Ward in Week 15. Typically, those assignments become available on Sunday mornings.
