    Jets backup QB Drew Stanton is considering asking for a trade or release, according to a league source. Only a week ago, Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum recruited Stanton to New York to be the Jets’ No. 2 quarterback behind starter Mark Sanchez. Now, with Tim Tebow in town after Wednesday’s trade with the Broncos, sources said those close to Stanton feel lied to and betrayed. Stanton turned down the chance to explore two other options and also took less money to go to New York because Tannenbaum was unequivocal that the QB was being brought in to be the No. 2 and the team wouldn’t draft or sign any other QBs. Sources also said Tannenbaum acknowledged Stanton, who performed well in occasional relief in Detroit, likely could earn more elsewhere.

    This team is a piece of crap and Mike Tannebaum is a giant freaking idiot. Tebow will ask to be traded/released by next season.

    Tannenbaum said he's the third stringer, Tebow the second, Sanchez the first. Nothing Tannenbaum ever says is true...just saying...

    That means Tebow is the QB, Stanton the slot WR and Sanchez the underware model

    Two things...

    1. So he can sit on his ass, likely not take a single hit during the season, and make $1.25 million.

    and/or

    2. If he was good enough in training, he could earn the starting job or backup role.
