    When Darrelle Revis lines up against the Jets on Sunday, New York's offense won't look much like the unit he practiced against for years in Florham Park, NJ.

    Rookie Geno Smith has taken over at quarterback and tight end Dustin Keller has been replaced by Jeff Cumberland and an aging Kellen Winslow Jr.

    One familiar face, Santonio Holmes, is expected to play on a limited basis Sunday when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers visit MetLife, a team source told NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport.

    Rapoport was told the Jets will monitor Holmes and his surgically repaired foot, which knocked him out of 12 games last season and left the Jets devoid of difference-makers. He remains the team's best pass-catcher, but his motivation to return the field has been questioned this offseason.
