NEW YORK -- Tone Time is over for the New York Jets. The
Jets parted ways with wide receiver Santonio Holmes on
Monday, cutting the talented but injury-plagued playmaker
after four seasons. The move, which had been expected,
saves the Jets $8.25 million, which Holmes was due to
make as his base salary this season. He was also
scheduled to have a $10.75 million cap number, a lofty
total for a one-time Super Bowl MVP who has struggled
with injuries and inconsistency the last two seasons. The
Jets also released cornerback Antonio Cromartie on
Sunday, clearing $17.75 million of salary cap space
before the NFLs free agency period starts Tuesday. New
York could also save another $8.3 million if they cut
quarterback Mark Sanchez, who missed last season with a
shoulder injury. Holmes, who turned 30 last Monday, had
23 catches -- the second-lowest total of his career --
for 456 yards and a touchdown in 11 games last season. He
missed five games midway through the season with a
hamstring injury. Holmes played in just four games in
2012 and was sidelined for several months after suffering
a career-threatening foot injury. In December, Holmes
said he would be willing to restructure his contract to
remain a member of the Jets, adding that how much of a
pay cut hed be asked to take probably wouldnt play into
his decision to want to stay. "I appreciate Tones
contributions over the last four seasons," coach Rex Ryan
said in a statement. "Ive always admired his knack for
making the clutch play. Hes a tremendous competitor who
wants the ball in his hands when the game is on the line.
I wish him nothing but the best." Holmes signed a five-
year, $45 million deal before the 2011 season after a
solid first year with the Jets, who acquired him from
Pittsburgh for a fifth-round draft pick. He agreed to
restructure his contract in March 2012, when he took a
$3.5 million cut to his scheduled base salary of $11
million for last season. Holmes was a controversial
figure at times during his tenure with the Jets, butting
heads with Sanchez and the teams offensive linemen during
the 2011 season. In the season finale at Miami, he got
into an argument with offensive tackle Wayne Hunter in
the huddle and was benched for the rest of the game. The
mercurial wide receiver also had a contentious
relationship with the media, keeping his answers short
during most group interviews. He inadvertently made
headlines last season when he called Carolinas secondary
the Panthers defences "weakest link" while trying to
credit the unit -- but providing bulletin board for an
opponent that went out and beat the Jets 30-20. Holmes
was a first-round draft pick by the Steelers out of Ohio
State in 2006 and was selected the Super Bowl MVP in his
third season after he caught a 6-yard touchdown pass from
Ben Roethlisberger with 35 seconds left to lead
Pittsburgh past Arizona. He had his best statistical
performance the following season with 79 catches for
1,248 yards and five touchdowns. But Holmes was traded to
the Jets the following off-season after the Steelers
tired of his numerous legal troubles. Holmes was
suspended for his first four games with the Jets for
violating the NFLs substance abuse policy, but quickly
became one of the teams primary playmakers when he
returned. He played a key role in three straight wins
with big catches late in games, prompting Ryan to label
those types of clutch moments as "Tone Time." He also
helped lead the Jets to their second straight AFC title
game appearance, in which they lost to Holmes former
team. Holmes has 381 career catches for 5,963 yards and
36 touchdowns in eight NFL seasons. NOTES: The Jets
offered a one-year tender to restricted free agent LB
Nick Bellore, who is one of the teams core special teams
players. He has until May 2 to accept the offer or
negotiate with other teams.

. -- Sonny Grays fastball wasnt as sharp as it usually
is, and the Oakland Athletics young pitcher even had a
quirky replay go against him.FALL RIVER, Mass. - Jury
selection in the murder trial of former New England
Patriots star Aaron Hernandez resumed Monday for a second
day, as hundreds more prospective jurors filled out
questionnaires that lawyers will use to help narrow down
the jury pool.Bristol County Superior Court Judge Susan
Garsh was bringing in three groups of jurors per day for
the first phase of jury selection, which was due to end
Tuesday.Each group heard the same thing: The clerk read
the charges against Hernandez, then Garsh introduced
prosecutors, the defence team and Hernandez, discussed
the important role that jury service plays in a democracy
and described the crime Hernandez is accused of —
killing Odin Lloyd on June 17, 2013. She told jurors
Hernandez has pleaded not guilty and denies the charges.
The clerk then swore in prospective jurors before they
begin filling in the questionnaire, which has not yet
been publicly released by the court.Prosecutors say
Hernandez, 25, and two friends, Carlos Ortiz and Ernest
Wallace, picked up 27-year-old Lloydd at his home in
Boston and took him to an industrial park in North
Attleborough near Hernandezs home, where he was shot to
death.dddddddddddd They have not said who pulled the
trigger but say Hernandez — then a Patriots tight end
with a $40 million contract — orchestrated the crime.
Lloyd, a semiprofessional football player, was dating the
sister of Hernandezs fiancee.Starting Wednesday, lawyers
will go through more than 1,000 completed questionnaires
to determine which prospective jurors to excuse. After
that, the second phase will begin: individual questioning
by the judge. Eighteen people will be selected as jurors,
including six alternates.No cameras are allowed in the
courthouse during jury selection, but they will be
allowed at trial.Prosecutors previously said they expect
the trial to last six to 10 weeks, although Garsh told
prospective jurors Monday that the lawyers would be
meeting in the next few days to determine the length of
the trial.Opening statements are not expected to begin
until at least Jan. 20.
