I'm going on," Coughlin said       after the two-hour workout at the Timex Performance Center. "He's here.       He wants to work. He wants to be a part of the team. We certainly want       him to be. We want it all. We don't want a part of it, we want it all. I       hoping that's the way it is."              While Umenyiora is practicing for the first time since reporting to camp       17 days ago, he is not happy.              He maintains general manager Jerry Reese promised to re-work the final       two years of his contract and failed to do it. Reese offered the       nine-year veteran a contract laden with incentives this year, but       Umenyiora told The Associated Press in an email on Sunday Miles Austin Jersey 19 that was       unacceptable.              Umenyiora, who tied for the team high with 11 1-2 sacks and led the NFL       with 10 forced fumbles last season, will play this season under the       terms of his current contract. It will pay him 7.1 million over the       next two years.              Fellow defensive end Justin Tuck said       Umenyiora was in good spirits Monday but he noted that did not mean his       buddy was happy.              "Just because he is back on the football field, doesn't mean this saga       is over," Tuck said. "Again, he is doing what the thinks is best for       this football team and himself."              Tuck believes that Umenyiora will continue to work with the Giants to       resolve Authentic DeMarcus Ware Jersey his contract dispute, adding he does not think it will either       affect how Umenyiora plays or how the team prepares for games.              Umenyiora, who has been bothered by a sore knee for Dez Bryant Throwback Jersey the past 10 days,       showed quickness during individual drills early in practice and held his       own in 11-on-11 drills.              "He jumped right in there and tries to beat the ball like he normally       does," Coughlin said. "It was good to see."              Pierre-Paul, who had two sacks in a preseason loss to Carolina on       Saturday, wasn't upset sharing the right end job with Umenyiora.              "It makes the offense have a little hesitation and when we have all       three of us out there in the Osi package, they don't know what to do,"       Pierre-Paul said. "So, it is good. Osi is back."              Teammates also said Umenyiora's situation was never a major problem.       Quarterback Eli Manning said he was so       focused on the offense, that he felt Umenyiora's absence was only a       minor distraction.              "I haven't been answering questions on it," Manning said. "It hasn't       been a main concern. Right now, it's something that had to get worked       out, but we had other things we had to worry about."              Cornerback Terrell Thomas said having       Umenyiora back in the lineup will put pressure on opposing quarterbacks       and make his life easier.              "He's been in meetings, been alert and not made a fuss about it," Thomas       said. "He's been talking to the younger Replica Tyron Smith Jersey Blue guys at practice and doing what       he has to do. Hopefully, he comes back healthy and makes us stronger as       a team."              Veteran defensive Custom Dallas Cowboys Jersey tackle Chris Canty was       excited to have Umenyiora Authentic Tyron Smith Jersey Blue back on the field.              "He is a tremendous football player and a great teammate, so having him       out here is going to be awesome for us," Canty said. "We are just       putting more bullets in the gun."                                  Copyright 2011 by STATS LLC and The Associated Press.

 SAN DIEGO (AP) - The moment Patrick Crayton was asked about Dallas, a big smile appeared on his face."I'm definitely ready," the Chargers receiver said. "I can't wait until Wednesday."Crayton played six years for the Cowboys and still lives near Dallas, where he grew up. Despite asking for his release twice in 2010, he has fond memories of his time with the DeSean Jackson Jersey Green Cowboys, an 82-game stint, before being traded to San Diego 10 days before the opener last year.He'll get a chance Eagles Asante Samuel Premier Jersey to face them this weekend. The Chargers fly Wednesday to the Dallas area, where they'll practice with the Cowboys before playing them Sunday night."It was a wonderful experience," Crayton said. "Made a bunch of friends. They'll be lifelong friends. Loved the fans. It's home, so it was a dream to play at home."But it will be Chargers garb that Crayton's wife and two sons wear in Texas, not the silver-and-blue apparel that Crayton favored as a boy.Nor will Crayton root for the Cowboys this year, although he will pull for several of his pals on the team.He has found a new home with the Chargers, averaging 18.4 yards per catch last year before a Brent Celek Jersey Women dislocated wrist ended his season in the 10th game."Everything about Dallas was great, but so was coming out here," Crayton said.The Chargers acquired him for a seventh-round draft pick, also the round in which Dallas drafted him in 2004.Crayton requested Eagles DeSean Jackson Authentic Jersey his release after the Cowboys drafted receiver Dez Bryant in the first round."Dez Bryant, that was almost like the icing on the cake," Crayton said after a recent practice. "A lot of people think it was just that, but there were other issues. There was other stuff that led up to that, where we almost tried (to get a release) before that."He declined to elaborate but said it wasn't easy to ask out, which his agent did again shortly before the trade. He hadn't caught a pass in the preseason."I would have loved to have played the rest of my career there," he said. "But sometimes things run their course. At that point, it was time to move on."He wrist injury, sustained when he landed in the Official Eagles Jersey end zone while scoring a touch down, is healed.He is in sync with quarterback Philip Rivers and the offense of coach Norv Turner, which is similar to the Cowboys offense of coach Jason Garrett, a quarterback under Turner with Dallas in 1993.As Turner saw more of Crayton, he found ways to accentuate the 6-foot 205-pound receiver."I love the slot," Crayton said, "because I love working the middle and the underneath stuff."Crayton has found the team's culture hospitable, too, impressed that the Chargers is made up of Replica DeSean Jackson Jersey several veterans."We almost have a few more leaders in this locker room, which helps," he said. "When it's time for business, it's time for business. When it's time to hang out and have a little fun, they do that here. That's what you love about it, being able to separate the two."San Diego remains something of a mystery to him, however."I haven't been to the beach once, haven't been to the zoo, haven't been to Sea World," he said.Texas humidity, a far cry from the breezy comfort the Chargers have enjoyed this training camp, along with what Crayton calls "genuine Southern hospitality" will not be the only reminders that he's Replica Asante Samuel Jersey Green back home. Football-mad fans will give him another clue."There are movies made about football in Texas," he said. "Out on the West Coast, it's a little Authentic DeSean Jackson Jersey bit different. We have passionate fans. But I haven't seen a Chargers tattoo on anybody Official DeSean Jackson Jersey yet."                            Copyright 2011 by STATS LLC and The Associated Press.

 BEREA, Ohio (AP) - Colt McCoy showed up for his postgame news conference wearing a T-shirt endorsing a fishing tackle company.Maybe best to reel in the expectations right away.After all, Customized Philadelphia Eagles Jersey McCoy may have a tough time topping his exhibition debut.Looking poised and comfortable in Cleveland's new West Coast offense, McCoy outshined Super Bowl star Aaron Rodgers and was nearly flawless as the Browns beat the Green Bay Packers 27-17 on Saturday night, making Cleveland rookie coach Pat Shurmur a winner in his first NFL preseason game.McCoy completed 9 of 10 passes Eagles Brent Celek Authentic Jersey for 135 yards, one touchdown and compiled a 152.1 passer's rating - just a few points shy of perfection. The Browns, who have spent the past decade in a frustrating search for a franchise quarterback to lead them back to respectability, are hoping McCoy, may finally answer their prayers.He's off to a nice start."Pretty good," McCoy humbly said in assessing his performance. "We understand we have a long way to go."No doubt. Authentic Asante Samuel Jersey But for the first time in ages, the Browns, who have just one playoff appearance since 1999 and lost at least 10 games in seven of the last eight seasons, seem to be headed in the same direction. And, they're counting on McCoy to lead the way.Needing to get up to speed on the complex offense during the off-season, McCoy sought advice from a West Coast master.Brett Favre was happy to help.As the league's labor lockout dragged on, McCoy went to Hattiesburg, Miss., and spent a few days with the three-time NFL MVP, who learned the West Coast system while playing for Browns president Mike Holmgren in Green Bay. McCoy gleaned all he Cowboys Tyron Smith Jersey could from the-retired-at-the-moment Favre, who won a Super Bowl with Holmgren in 1996."Since I couldn't get coached, it was a great opportunity to pick the brain of a guy who played in the system for 20 years," McCoy said through a team spokesman. "It was a chance for me to get a lot of questions answered. We worked on footwork, progressions, reads and things like that. It was definitely a positive trip."McCoy is expected to offer more on the Favre visit Tuesday.Shurmur was encouraged by McCoy's first outing in the passer friendly system the first-year coach brought from St. Louis, where he taught it to Rams quarterback Sam Bradford. Shurmur knows it can work, and is pleased with how quickly McCoy has picked it up in training camp."He was efficient," Shurmur said after Monday's practice. "He saw what was going on extremely well. He was pretty accurate with his throws and pretty solid with his decision making. But again, once you have what would be considered a solid performance, then it's all Asante Samuel Authentic Jersey about consistency and he was right back on the stick this morning, getting better at some things."McCoy will get a chance to build off his impressive debut on Friday, when the Browns host Detroit.After dissecting the Packers, who were without star cornerback Charles Woodson and are currently thin in the secondary, McCoy was careful not to make too much of his strong game. He also made sure he spread the praise around to his teammates.His night didn't start well.On Cleveland's first snap, McCoy couldn't find an open receiver, and in a panic, lateralled to rookie fullback Owen Marecic, who recovered his fumble. McCoy regrouped and completed five straight passes, the last a 27-yard TD strike to Josh Cribbs.When he came to the sideline, McCoy acknowledged his early mistake to Shurmur."He said, 'Coach, I should of just ran with it,'" Shurmur said. "He knows what he's looking at. As we get more and more comfortable with one another, as he gets more and more comfortable with his players and the system, I hope he will progress next week."As for his progress during the game, McCoy showed he's able to make the Xs and Os in Shurmur's playbook spring to life.On a crossing pattern to wide receiver Brian Robiskie, McCoy looked off the safety to the Tyron Smith Jersey Blue right, creating a slim opening over the middle. He waited for Robiskie to clear the coverage and threw him a Premier Brent Celek Jersey low dart for a 15-yard reception."One of my favorite plays of the night is Robo," he said of the play to Robiskie. "We run a little play-action deep slant. Normally, you hit that ball in the first window but they rolled the safety down and Robo converted over the top and I hit him in the second window. It was a nice job by him of staying alive. There were some good things, there really were."McCoy certainly made a strong impression on the Packers."You can tell he definitely studied us some," nose tackle B.J. Raji said. "They did some things as far as getting him on the move and rollouts and quick West Coast stuff to get his confidence up there. And he did a good job and made the right decisions."Raji believes Asante Samuel Jersey Green McCoy has Brent Celek Jersey Green all the skills to win as a pro."An NFL quarterback's all about winning, and if memory serves me correctly, he was the winningest quarterback in NCAA history," he said. "The guy can play, he can win games, he knows what it takes. He has a bright future, there's no question about that."The Browns are counting on it.Notes: RB Montario Hardesty participated in contact drills for the first time in more than two weeks. Tyron Smith Jersey 29 The Browns have been taking it slow with the second-year back, who is coming back from knee surgery. "It was fun to get back in football mode again," Hardesty said. Shurmur wouldn't commit on Hardesty facing the Lions. ... OG Billy Yates told Shurmur he's retiring. Yates, a versatile nine-year veteran, started three games last season. He was listed as Cleveland's backup center and guard. ... Safety T.J. Ward didn't practice because of an issue with his tooth. "If you didn't know better, you would have thought he got punched in the chin," said Shurmur, noting Ward's face was swollen. ... WR Mohamed Massaquoi is finally out of the walking boot. Premier Asante Samuel Jersey Massaquoi hasn't practiced because of a leg injury, but he's getting closer. ... LBs Scott Fujita (thigh), Chris Gocong (neck), TE Ben Watson and S Usama Young didn't practice. ... Former Packers general manager Ron Wolf visited Holmgren.                            Copyright 2011 by STATS LLC and The Associated Press.
