Santonio Holmes is making Jets fans count the days until his four-game suspension is over following a nice showing during a team scrimmage.

Kellen Clemens was once considered the future quarterback of the Jets. He now wonders if his time with the franchise is almost up. That’s because coach Rex Ryan announced Sunday that recently signed veteran Mark Brunell will enter training camp as the Jets’ No. 2 quarterback behind Mark Sanchez. “I feel like I’m walking into camp as No. 2, and that’s my assessment,” Clemens said a few hours before Ryan’s comments. “I haven’t been told that. That’s my approach. If they want to open it up and give Mark Brunell a shot, that’s the NFL. I’ll deal with it and I’ll compete and I have a lot of confidence in my abilities to remain there.”
