Jets Reach One-Year, $4M Deal With FS LaRon Landry

The New York Jets have reached agreement with free agent safety LaRon Landry on a one-year, $4 million contract, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. A first-round pick out of LSU by the Washington Redskins in 2007, Landry has 383 tackles, 5.5 sacks, four interceptions, six forced fumbles and 31 passes defensed during his five-year career. An instant Pro Bowler, Landry has missed 15 games over the last two seasons with Achilles and groin injuries. Landry is more of an inside-the-box strong safety whose size (nearly 220 pounds) makes him less effective in coverage.

He going to play linebacker?

 

LB? where did that come from?

 

I always thought he could be a hell of a LB but Safety is cool too.

 

He's huge now, like ridiculously big Sweets. There was another Landry thread on here where we posted pics.

 

I think this picture shows why people would think he could be a LB with all the muscle he put on, he looks more like a LB than a SS

 

Holy crap.

 

I see this experiment failing miserably.

 

With all that muscle build up you of course increase your strength and hitting ability but it also seems like your speed and agility would suffer greatly

 

That's gotta be photoshopped, right?
