NEW YORK -- Tone Time is over for the New York Jets. http://www.sf49ersteamshop.com/authentic-vance-mcdonald-49ers-jersey/ . The Jets parted ways with wide receiver Santonio Holmes on Monday, cutting the talented but injury-plagued playmaker after four seasons. The move, which had been expected, saves the Jets $8.25 million, which Holmes was due to make as his base salary this season. He was also scheduled to have a $10.75 million cap number, a lofty total for a one-time Super Bowl MVP who has struggled with injuries and inconsistency the last two seasons. The Jets also released cornerback Antonio Cromartie on Sunday, clearing $17.75 million of salary cap space before the NFLs free agency period starts Tuesday. New York could also save another $8.3 million if they cut quarterback Mark Sanchez, who missed last season with a shoulder injury. Holmes, who turned 30 last Monday, had 23 catches -- the second-lowest total of his career -- for 456 yards and a touchdown in 11 games last season. He missed five games midway through the season with a hamstring injury. Holmes played in just four games in 2012 and was sidelined for several months after suffering a career-threatening foot injury. In December, Holmes said he would be willing to restructure his contract to remain a member of the Jets, adding that how much of a pay cut hed be asked to take probably wouldnt play into his decision to want to stay. "I appreciate Tones contributions over the last four seasons," coach Rex Ryan said in a statement. "Ive always admired his knack for making the clutch play. Hes a tremendous competitor who wants the ball in his hands when the game is on the line. I wish him nothing but the best." Holmes signed a five-year, $45 million deal before the 2011 season after a solid first year with the Jets, who acquired him from Pittsburgh for a fifth-round draft pick. He agreed to restructure his contract in March 2012, when he took a $3.5 million cut to his scheduled base salary of $11 million for last season. Holmes was a controversial figure at times during his tenure with the Jets, butting heads with Sanchez and the teams offensive linemen during the 2011 season. In the season finale at Miami, he got into an argument with offensive tackle Wayne Hunter in the huddle and was benched for the rest of the game. The mercurial wide receiver also had a contentious relationship with the media, keeping his answers short during most group interviews. He inadvertently made headlines last season when he called Carolinas secondary the Panthers defences "weakest link" while trying to credit the unit -- but providing bulletin board for an opponent that went out and beat the Jets 30-20. Holmes was a first-round draft pick by the Steelers out of Ohio State in 2006 and was selected the Super Bowl MVP in his third season after he caught a 6-yard touchdown pass from Ben Roethlisberger with 35 seconds left to lead Pittsburgh past Arizona. He had his best statistical performance the following season with 79 catches for 1,248 yards and five touchdowns. But Holmes was traded to the Jets the following off-season after the Steelers tired of his numerous legal troubles. Holmes was suspended for his first four games with the Jets for violating the NFLs substance abuse policy, but quickly became one of the teams primary playmakers when he returned. He played a key role in three straight wins with big catches late in games, prompting Ryan to label those types of clutch moments as "Tone Time." He also helped lead the Jets to their second straight AFC title game appearance, in which they lost to Holmes former team. Holmes has 381 career catches for 5,963 yards and 36 touchdowns in eight NFL seasons. http://www.sf49ersteamshop.com/authentic-jerry-rice-49ers-jersey/ . Or at least something approaching the greatness of the New York Rangers goaltender. http://www.sf49ersteamshop.com/authentic-ahmad-brooks-49ers-jersey/ . Villarreal missed midfielders Bruno Soriano and Cani and was held in check until just after the restart when Jeremy Perbet redirected the ball into the net. The hosts went on to produce another impressive performance at their Madrigal Stadium and Manuel Trigueros doubled the lead from long range in the 55th.ASHBURN, Va. - Full of promises and platitudes but short on specifics, Washington Redskins president and general manager Bruce Allen said Wednesday he would oversee a full evaluation of how the team operates after its sixth last-place finish in seven seasons.There are going to be changes in the way we do business, Allen said at his first news conference since August.It seems like a long time ago when we won the (NFC East), he said, and in football, its like doggy years — it does multiply with each year.Shortly before Allen spoke, the Redskins announced that defensive co-ordinator Jim Haslett would be gone after five seasons. Allen vowed: There will be other changes.During a question-and-answer session that lasted about 40 minutes before being cut off by a team spokesman, Allen did not indicate what switches might be on the way for a club that is 28-52 during his five full seasons as GM. That includes a 4-12 mark in Jay Grudens first season as an NFL head coach, which ended Sunday with a 44-17 loss to rival Dallas.Were going to take this time to start a full evaluation of everything and look into the way we acquire players; look into the way we coach players; look at the way players prepare in the off-season and in-season, Allen said. And make sure we correct the problems that occurred, make sure they dont happen again, and bring in the right people.Allen repeatedly mentioned injuries when discussing the Redskins failings, including in reference to Robert Griffin III — Roberts under contract for us for 2015; I do believe hes a young man who has shown promise and can play in this league, he said — and free-agent flops from last off-season.http://www.sf49ersteamshop.com/authentic-colin-kaepernick-49ers-jersey/. Allen said the Redskins will have at least $20 million in cap space this off-season.He spoke glowingly of Gruden, saying he has full autonomy to make decisions about who plays.I believe hes the right leader. And I believe the players believe hes the right leader, Allen said. We just have to make sure we augment the roster with the right players and give him the talent that he needs.Allen said he would shoulder the blame for the span of losing because, Im responsible for what happens with this organization.If we can find a winning formula thats going to help this team win on the football field, well absolutely do it. And that includes me, Allen said. If it meant mowing that lawn out there every Tuesday, I would mow the lawn every darn Tuesday.In another odd non sequitur, Allen noted: I do think our charitable foundation does a fantastic job. Were winning off the field, but weve got to start winning on the field.Just about the only specific provided by Allen had to do with the timetable he predicted for getting the three-time Super Bowl champion franchise turned around after years of defeats and dysfunction.Over the next month or so, former Redskins coach George Allens son averred, well have this going in the right direction.___Follow Howard Fendrich on Twitter at http://twitter.com/HowardFendrich___Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Jerseys Wholesale JerseysWholesale Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys China Wholesale Jerseys ' ' '
