Pennington gets two-year, $11.5M deal with Dolphins

Post by Joetown Parrothead »

Chad Pennington entered the New York Jets' training camp unsure if he would start or play backup to Kellen Clemens.
One day after his release from New York, he found what looks to be a starting job with the Miami Dolphins. Pennington, 32, agreed Friday night to a two-year, $11.5 million contract that pretty well locks him into starting, according to a source. Contacted by six teams on Thursday, Pennington wasted no time reuniting with the person who brought him into the NFL as a first-round pick of the Jets, Bill Parcells After being replaced by a legend in New York, Chad Pennington will now become the 13th QB to try to replace a legend in Miami. Since Dan Marino, who is second to Brett Favre in career completions, attempts, passing yards, and passing TD, retired after the 1999 NFL season, 12 different QBs have started a game for the Dolphins.

I'd rather work outside in Miami in December than in New York. 8)

No.....i think it was a good move while Henne matures.I Like Beck...but he was struggling.

They are more of a running team anyways...so not having a strong arm QB won't hurt that much...it's nice to stretch the field..but play action will work as long as the Running game is clicking.

does Jets stand for still Just End The Season!!!

I agree TB, Pennington was a smart move. He's a good QB and teammate and like you said they run more than pass anyways.

Not a Jets fan but I thought that Pennington has been a bust so far and seems like he is always hurt. Maybe that's not the case.
Him going to Miami will make as much an impact as Jay Feidler did.
