Chris Ivory can't seem to escape a holding pattern in his first training camp with the New York Jets. Ivory was quickly forced to come out of practice Wednesday after his bothersome hamstring tightened up during individual drills. It had been Ivory's first attempted full practice with fellow Jets running backs. "Hamstrings are tricky," Ivory said, via The New York Post. "It can feel good and you can go out there like I did today and I thought I was ready, but I'm not ready. So it's a feel thing. I don't want to push it and make it a two-week injury. When it's fixed I want to be able to stay out there and not go back and reinjure it." Ivory's absence is notable given the Jets' dearth of reliable options at running back. Joe McKnight and Bilal Powell aren't turning heads. Mike Goodson -- tangled up in legal problems -- might not ever show up. Source: NFL.com
Let me tell you........ Watching Ivory the last couple of years in New Orleans was nothing but thrills. The guy is an absolute beast everytime he touches the ball. Definitely one of the most aggressive runners I've ever seen. The problem is he just runs so hard that his body just can't take the pounding.
