It's time for Jets fans to forget about a Braylon Edwards sequel, as the wide receiver won't be coming back.
The team is happy with the group of receivers it has, led by Santonio Holmes, rookie Stephen Hill, Chaz Schilens and Jeremy Kerley.
Speculation has swirled since February that the Jets would sign Edwards, who spent part of 2009 and all of 2010 with the team.
The Jets allowed Edwards to leave before last season as a free agent. He signed with the 49ers but played in just nine games as he battled knee and shoulder injuries, with 15 catches for 181 yards. The 49ers waived Edwards before the team's final regular season game.
The 29-year-old remains popular with Jets fans after leading the team with 904 receiving yards and seven touchdowns in 2010. Edwards, acquired in a 2009 trade with the Browns, had some great moments on the field for the Jets, but he also will be remembered for a DWI arrest in 2010.
The Jets opted to sign Holmes to a five-year, $45 million contract before last season instead of bringing back Edwards when both were free agents.
Questions have persisted if the Jets would bring Edwards back this year, but they have decided against it.
