Quinton Coples good enough, Jets coach Rex Ryan decides

Posted May 6, 2012
Rex Ryan had already seen enough of Quinton Coples. And he liked everything about the first-round draft pick. So much so, the New York Jets coach held Coples out of 11-on-11 team drills Saturday because the team wanted to evaluate other defensive linemen. “Just keeping him out, we know what he can do,” Ryan said after the Jets’ second rookie minicamp practice.
