Nice story on the front page, you unreliable skink pricks. You should write Cimini an apology for your constant bashing of his alleged negative slant if you're going to demonize a player with no grounds, you derp-peddling scumbags.

Coples Told To “Take A Seat” by Jets Coaches
by Dennis Agapito on May 5, 2012
in Camp Reports, Jet News
Various sources have confirmed that New York Jets first round draft pick Quinton Coples had been told to remain out of 11-on-11 drills during today’s rookie mini-camp:
Jenny Vrentas / The Star Ledger:
In the past the Jets have held out players from practice who were on the verge of signing a contract. This might be what is behind Coples absence as he remains unsigned even though second round pick Stephen Hill already has a contract. Given Coples reputation the benching does raise some “red flags” but Coach Ryan had nothing but praise for Coples after day one of practice, so this being a disciplinary move seems unlikely.
Ryan is set to address the media at 3 pm today after practice. He will surely be giving an explanation as to why Coples was held out of specific team drills.

Various sources have confirmed that New York Jets first round draft pick Quinton Coples had been told to remain out of 11-on-11 drills during today’s rookie mini-camp:
Jenny Vrentas / The Star Ledger:
Coples was suited up for practice today and took part in individual drills, but he was on the sideline for the team period. The defensive end said he was not injured. He called it a “coach’s decision” to keep him out.
Coples, who watched the 11-on-11 drills from the sideline with helmet in hand, said he had no idea why he was told to sit out. He said he’s not injured; he participated in individual drills.
“They told me to sit out and that’s what I did,” the former North Carolina defensive end said.
Asked if he questioned the decision, Coples said, “There’s no time to question it. This is the NFL. If the boss says sit down, sit down. That’s what I did.”
On the second day of rookie mini-camp, the coaches kept him on the sidelines during 11-on-11 team drills. Coples participated in individual drills before watching 11 on 11s on Saturday.
“They told me to sit out and that’s what I did,” Coples said. “There’s no time to question it. This is the NFL. If the boss says sit down, sit down. So that’s what I did.”
Was Coples, who said that he wasn’t injured, curious why he wasn’t participating in team drills?
“I am,” Coples said. “I trust the staff. They (made) the best decision for me. And I’ll move forward from there.”

I hate Jets fans.
UPDATE: Rex Ryan, speaking to reporters two hours after practice, said they decided to sit No. 1 pick Quinton Coples in team drills so they could evaluate other players. It wasn't related to an injury or a disciplinary reason.
"He's fine," Ryan said. "There's no injury, there's no nothing. It was just my decision."
Ryan said it's not uncommon to remove players, especially linemen, from drills in a rookie minicamp. He didn't give any reasons, except to say, "We've already evaluated Quinton." Logically, it makes sense because the drills tend to get sloppy and you don't want to risk injury in the trenches, especially to a key player.
I hate Jets fans.

Also, there's nothing on TV.
Makes sense. Whenever there's nothing on the tube it is time to get into the fire-water.

Coples was just kicking all of the others rookie's asses far too badly, so Rex was doing them a favor.
this. they saw him yesterday and were thinking.....there's no upside in having him just manhandle these guys.
