This offseason will come a lot sooner for the veteran running back, who'll head home in a few days - his first season with the New York Jets over and the team's lofty expectations unfulfilled. ``It's been one of my most difficult years,'' Jones said Friday. ``Coming from a Super Bowl team and then to be in a situation like this, where you're not winning as many games, is a tough transi |
