NJ Star-Ledger: Rookie Jeremy Kerley off to quick start with Jets

By Jenny Vrentas/The Star-Ledger The Star-Ledger

Mike Westhoff's pre-draft scouting report called Jeremy Kerley "patient," "solid" and "tough."

The Jets' renowned special-teams coordinator graded the TCU receiver and return specialist highly, making the note, "He is a guy that could do a number of things." But Westhoff, noticing the wide-open holes Kerley scampered through on an undefeated Rose Bowl team, also scribbled down a question: "How good will he be on his own?"

So when Westhoff met Kerley, after the NFL lockout ended, he sat him down in his office at Jets headquarters and interrogated him.

O good lord, that is going to be the fastest most athletic child ever born, Son of Kerley and a record setting sprinter.

I can't wait to watch Kerley on Monday night against the Texans. He will be lighting it up this season on the scoreboard.
