Vinny Testaverde To Replace Jets' Pennington
(New York- WABC, September 27, 2005) - Quarterback Vinny Testaverde will return to the New York Jets to replace Chad Pennington, who was injured last week.
The team plans to make the announcement at 2:00 p.m. this afternoon.
The 41-year-old Testaverde, who started for Dallas last season, was at the Jets' training complex this morning for a physical. He was unsigned when this season began.
Testaverde will fill the void left by injuries to starter Chad Pennington and backup Jay Fiedler, who also injured his shoulder after replacing Pennington in Sunday's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The Jets also worked out Doug Johnson, Jesse Palmer, and Jonathan Quinn today and may sign one of them, too.
Pennington suffered a torn rotator cuff in Sunday's game against Jacksonville and is expected to be out for the season. Fiedler also suffered a severe shoulder injury and could also be out for the year.
