The Jets worked out three players today, one of which was former Patriots and Cardinals punter Scott Player.  Mangini said today in his press conference today that Reggie Hodges would be the punter on Sunday vs the Bills, but insinuated that he must be better in order to keep his job.

I can’t help but think Mangini is bitter over the fact that Hodges punted the ball in the end zone last week after a drive where the Jets stalled on the 49ers 38 yard line and the head coach decided against going for it on 4th and 2.  A decision he has been criticized for in some circles.

In my opinion, Hodges has been just OK.  If the Jets want to sign Player that is fine with me, the hope of getting some continuity in the kicking game is long gone by now.  Heck, patch it up every week if you need to.  At this point I don’t think Jets fans would even be surprised if Sean Landeta made a comeback.
