Jets “Closing In On A Deal” With CB Antonio Cromartie

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the New York Jets are closing in a deal with CB Antonio Cromartie.

Since missing out on star free agent Nnamdi Asomugha, the Jets have been forced to renegotiate with Cromartie. New York needs to solidify the corner position opposite of Darrell Revis and Cormartie represents that best available option for them. The only issue is that they have basically made it known that they preferred other options over him but if Schefter’s report is accurate, then it may not be as big of an issue as assumed.

The Raiders, Browns, Lions and 49ers have also been rumored to have interest in Cromartie as well.
