Comments (0) Best Jet - 2010
LaDainian Tomlinson
Readers' Choice: Mark Sanchez
Granted that it's odd to pick a man who has never played a down in a Jets uniform before this season, and equally odd to pick a running back who's 31, an age when most veteran backs are considering assistant coaching jobs with their old college teams. But LaDainian Tomlinson is one of the greats, seventh on the all-time rushing list—and, playing in front of a much better offensive line than he was used to in San Diego, he should demonstrate that he has a lot of pop left. (He's averaging well over 5 yards a carry so far this season.) With Tomlinson and the remarkable second-year back Shonn Greene, the Jets have the best one-two running-back punch in pro football.
