The New York Jets waive Tony Fisher and sign running back Tony Hollings
It’s too bad that Tony Fisher didn’t show up healthy because he would have gotten a chance at getting some carries for the Jets this season. Instead, he’s back on the street looking for work. Speaking of the street…that’s where the Jets found Tony Hollings who hasn’t played in the NFL since the 2005 season with the Houston Texans. The Jets will give Hollings an opportunity to win the job as the #3 running back on the team. Hollings has played in 23 games (1 start) in the NFL and he has carried the ball 49 times for 149 yards (3.0 ypc) and he has caught 7 passes for 71 yards (10.1 avg). Hollings also has returned 11 kickoffs for 211 yards (19.2 avg) but the Jets hopefully won’t need him for that job.
