John Connor released/Terminator terminated

Brian Costello ‏@BrianCoz
John Conner has been terminated. Dowtin signed from PS

He was pretty useless, glad to see Rex move on from one of "his guys".

While technically we merge to the earliest thread, I'm thinking the other thread wins based on the title.

Not too surprising. Hilliard is better in almost every facet.

Definitly a good sign that Rex cut "his guy."

Think this will teach Rex to shut his mouth about players and what they will do before they actually play?

A clear sign that Sporano is going to have a say as to personnel on the O.

Hilliard did more for the running game in one game than Connor did in 3 years. Sad that a guy off the street is light years better than Connor was.

Yeah.... a GREAT REX/coaches pick.

Superbowl winners dont treat the draft like a candy lottery the way Tanny and Woody do.

Jets waived FB John Conner with an injury settlement and promoted LB Marcus Dowtin from their practice squad.
Conner gained fame on "Hard Knocks" thanks to his bone-bruising blocks on special teams, but the Jets quickly soured on his lead-blocking ability. An MCL sprain sealed the deal here.
