    Still bitter over a messy divorce last year from the Seattle Seahawks, and motivated to prove he's not washed up at 30, tight end Kellen Winslow reported to the New York Jets' training camp with a bold ambition.

    "My goal is to have 100 catches," he said Thursday. "Will I catch 100? I don't know. It might be 20, but that's the goal."

    Winslow, battling chronic pain in his oft-repaired right knee, is attempting to resurrect his career after playing in only one game last season. That came with the New England Patriots, who picked him up two weeks after his Seattle release.

    One year later, Winslow still believes he was mistreated by the Seahawks, who cut him at the end of the preseason after he refused to accept a pay cut.

    "They cut me over money. They put me in a bad situation," he said. "I can't even speak on it. It's just frustrating what happened. You just don't do a vet like that."

    Winslow's ire seemed to be directed at coach Pete Carroll and general manager John Schneider.
