His play has dropped off considerably. Great guy and great career but it this is definitely the right time.

He doesn't have the power he once did, but I didn't realize how precise he was last year. We only gave up 60 return yards, he only allowed one touchback (IIRC, Skowronek's fault), and his net punting average was 42.6 yards (#4 in the NFL).

My Jets will probably be punting a lot. 

Sign me up (still only 32 years old).

Gonna go out on a limb here DWC and say, unless the Jets pay Hekker like a QB, he's not going from SB Champ to become a Jet. Sorry.

I've always disliked this mindset from fans because NFL players are more competitive than people realize. And a lot of them aren't scared of a challenge.

C.J. Mosley said it best.

(and plenty of great players go to teams who aren't yet great).

Sorry I'm confused? What does any of that have to do with Hekker wanting to join a losing Franchise rather then joining a playoff contender for the rest of his career?
