HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) - The New York Jets insisted Curtis Martin has not yet decided to end his season, despite a published report Tuesday that the NFL's No. 4 career rusher has told members of the team he won't return this year.
"There has been no decision," coach Eric Mangini said when addressing the story in The Star-Ledger.
The newspaper, quoting anonymous teammates and a team official, reported that Martin has already said he won't be able to play this season because of a bone-on-bone condition in his right knee that has sidelined him since late last year. The report also said Martin is close to retiring.
