Quinton Coples spotlight: An inside look at the Jets' linebacker before, during Wednesday's practice

Posted Aug 21, 2015
Quinton Coples, the Jets' starting rush outside linebacker, is entering a critical season. The former first-round draft pick, selected 16th overall in 2012, has yet to fully live up to his potential in the NFL. He has high hopes for more sack production in 2015, playing in new coach Todd Bowles' defense. Coples must show progress if he wants the Jets to retain him next season, when he would make about $7.8 million, while playing under the fifth-year option clause in his rookie contract. (NJ.com)
