"Hypothetically, we'd see [Tomlinson] carry the ball 15 times a game," Ryan said. "I'm sure some games he'll have more rushing attempts than Shonn Greene, and I think Shonn will have more than L.T. in other games." The Jets didn't bring in L.T. at $5M+ over two years to ride the pine, but Ryan also said he believes Greene is "a superstar in the making." Barring injury, Greene will lead the backfield in touches, with Tomlinson lowering his fantasy ceiling.
