The New York Jets are giving Aaron Berry a chance at reviving his NFL career.
Berry, who was arrested twice this summer and cut by the Detroit Lions, signed with the Jets on Monday.
With All-Pro cornerback Darrelle Revis likely out for the season with a torn ligament in his left knee, Berry gives the Jets much-needed depth to their secondary.
''We feel that Aaron has a chance to be successful on and off the field here,'' coach Rex Ryan said. ''If we didn't believe that, then we wouldn't bring him here. As far as him as a player, I feel his has the physical skill set we look for in our corners, and the No. 1 skill set would be man cover skills. We feel he has those.''

This guy always seems to be able to find trouble. If he can stay out of trouble and contribute at least a little bit, then this is a good signing. With Revis out for the rest of the season most likely, some depth at the cornerback position is good.
