New York Jets coach Rex Ryan insists that his team is not holding a quarterback competition. His actions support those claims.
Ryan indicated Tuesday before the team's first mandatory minicamp practice that Tim Tebow will be "running with the twos" throughout minicamp. Mark Sanchez is the team's starter, and Ryan has gone out of his way to pump him up this offseason. (Even more than Ryan goes out of his way to pump everyone up).
With the draft and most of free agency behind us, which team has improved the most this offseason? Let's debate!

"I like the way Mark has come back," Ryan said during a news conference. "I think Sanchez has really been impressive. Obviously, you see it on the field, but I think it's the other things that maybe we don't see which is in the class room which I think he's been absolutely tremendous."
Sanchez might have struggled last year, however, he did lead the Jets to their first OTA championship.
UPDATE:
Final 11on11 stats for Sanchez: 2 for 8, sacked 3 times in 21 snaps. #nyj

While we're breaking Jets news that seems more important mainly because it's June, here were a few more nuggets from Ryan:
â¢Darrelle Revis was in attendance at practice, as expected. Any potential holdout will have to wait until camp.
â¢Santonio Holmes is bothered by a tight hamstring, so he will be limited in camp this week. (Translation: Holmes' complaints last week worked perfectly.)
â¢Safety LaRon Landry is with the team, but he's not able to practice because of his never-ending Achilles injury.
