Jets release Thomas Jones, Strickland

Football Betting Lines

03/05/2010 - Florham Park, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Jets announced the release of veteran running back Thomas Jones on Friday. The team also released cornerback Donald Strickland.

Jones, 31, ran for a career-high 1,402 yards last season and established a franchise record with 14 rushing touchdowns, after setting that mark in 2008 with 13 scores.

The 10-year veteran also set a Jets single-game record with 210 yards on the ground in week six against the Buffalo Bills.

Jones was acquired in 2007 from the Chicago after spending three seasons with the Bears.

The one-time Pro Bowler started his career in Arizona in 2000, but hadn't rushed for over 1,000 yards until he ended up in Chicago. Since 2005, Jones has rushed for 1,000 yards in each season.

Last April, the Jets drafted Iowa running back Shonn Greene in the third round, who averaged 5.0 yards per carry in the regular season and rushed for 304 yards in three games during the playoffs. New York will also welcome back Leon Washington, who missed the entire season after breaking his right leg.

Strickland has played for four different teams in the NFL. He played in nine games for the Jets last season.
