JetNation Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 John Idzik spoke to the media a short time ago and gave one of the stranger updates in Jets history. Dimitri Patterson, who was with the team on Friday and was scheduled to play, left the team and the Jets weren’t sure why. Here are some updates from media members that were on the call. Idzik: Dimitri Patterson was absent from preseason game. Unexcused absence. — Seth Walder (@SethWalderNYDN) August 24, 2014 Idzik said the Jets did not find out Patterson was OK until Saturday. To their knowledge, there are no legal issues #nyj — Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 24, 2014 "I've left messages …and have not had success." — Rex Ryan on Patterson #jets — Kimberley A. Martin (@KMart_LI) August 24, 2014 Dimitri Patterson's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, isn't commenting on the situation at this time. #jets — Kimberley A. Martin (@KMart_LI) August 24, 2014 We aren’t going to speculate on what happened here or why Patterson would do that. What we do know is that this puts the Jets in a terrible spot. The cornerback concerns for the Jets have been well documented and Patterson was being counted on as a week one starter. With Dee Milliner recovering from his ankle injury and already depleted secondary now has another reason to worry. Jets fans are sounding off on in our forums.
