Jets release veteran safety Tongue

Associated Press
Posted: 21 hours ago



HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) - Safety Reggie Tongue was released Wednesday by the New York Jets after starting all 16 games last season.

Tongue played just one season with the Jets and had the longest interception return in the team's postseason history with an 85-yard touchdown run against Pittsburgh.
A second-round draft pick in 1996 by Kansas City, Tongue played four years with the Chiefs and four years with Seattle.

His name precludes him from being on the team. Can you imagine this play by play commentary.

"Tongue makes a big hit on the WR on the crossing route."

"Yeah, Tongue is a big hitter."

"Nobody brings it better than Tongue."

I'd change my name.

We can't consider him. He's not a former CB. It's against the rules.

And then there's the obvious groaner: Tongue can put a big lick on a receiver if he gets the chance......

Seriously, Coach Edwards had to give him a good tongue lashing last year for biting on fakes a rookie could see thru...

Good one. I really liked the he can really put a lick on someone. WG that was *censored*. But good too. Some good stuff here but I don't think any of us should give up our day jobs.
