Wearing the No.29 jets jersey, Leon Washington hopes to play on the field in the Jets' first game next season.
Doctors said his broken right leg is two months ahead of a normal recovery and may he can be off crutches next week. "Everything's looking on the up and up, and I'm just looking forward to when I can start jogging," Washington said. "I've got a long way until the season starts. I'm on pace to be there for the opening game of the season, so I just try not to push myself too much." Washington underwent a fracture of the tibia and fibula at Oakland on Oct.25 then accepted a surgery with six to 12 months to heal.
Everything seems to be good with Washington.
