Revis Island is open for business again — just in time for the New York Jets to start their Super Bowl run. All-Pro cornerback Darrelle Revis and the Jets agreed in principle to a four-year contract Sunday night, reaching a deal a week before the team’s season opener. “It not has only been hard on u guys, but it has for me too,” Revis wrote on his Twitter page early Monday morning.

The San Diego Chargers have signed veteran offensive tackle Adam Terry to a one-year contract and released tackle Ryan Otterson. Terry was cut Saturday by Indianapolis. He played with Baltimore from 2005-09. This is the second attempt by the Chargers to add veteran depth at tackle to help fill the void left by Marcus McNeill’s holdout.

The injury-riddled Denver Broncos were awarded running back Andre Brown of the New York Giants and offensive lineman Chris Clark of the Minnesota Vikings off waivers on Sunday. To make room on the roster, the Broncos waived linebacker Baraka Atkins and running back Bruce Hall. In Brown, the Broncos essentially replaced a player who just ruptured an Achilles’ tendon (LenDale White) with one who…

Minnesota Vikings coach Brad Childress is staunchly defending his decision to keep Tarvaris Jackson as Brett Favre’s backup over Sage Rosenfels. The Vikings traded Rosenfels to the New York Giants on Friday night. Rosenfels threw for 310 yards and three TDs in the preseason opener against St. Louis, but was just 8 for 17 for 92 yards with one TD in the next three games combined.

The Jets are running out of locker room leaders on offense. Veteran fullback Tony Richardson was released by New York on Sunday, the most surprising of a series of roster moves a day after the team got down to the mandatory 53-player limit. The Jets also waived wide receiver David Clowney and running back Chauncey Washington, and claimed wide receiver Patrick Turner (Miami), a former college…

Miami Dolphins cornerback Will Allen was placed on injured reserve Sunday, ending any hope the 10th-year player had of returning from mid-August knee surgery. Coach Tony Sparano refused to disclose specifics on why Allen, who had started all 43 games he spent with the Dolphins over the past four years, was placed on IR.

The Bengals have released second-string quarterback J.T. O’Sullivan, who struggled during the preseason. O’Sullivan completed only 35 of 60 passes for 396 yards with two interceptions and five sacks during five preseason games, working with the Bengals’ second-string players. He appeared in only three games last season as Carson Palmer’s backup.

Even if there was a surprise among Cleveland’s cuts, the Browns would have blown it with their timing. The team didn’t reveal its roster cuts until three hours after submitting them to the NFL offices on Saturday, a sign the Browns may be busy working the waiver wire to make more changes to their 53-man squad.

The Minnesota Vikings are apparently still looking for wide receivers. The Vikings cut 20 players Saturday, including five wide receivers to leave them with just four players on the active roster at that position right now. Recently signed Javon Walker and training camp standout Logan Payne were waived, with Taye Biddle, Freddie Brown and Marquis Hamilton also let go.

All-Pro safety Darren Sharper’s goal of helping the Saints compete for a second consecutive championship remains intact, even if it isn’t working out quite as he’d planned. Projected starting linebacker Jonathan Casillas wasn’t as fortunate. Sharper must sit out the first six games of the season, while Casillas won’t come back at all after injuring his foot in the Saints’…

Willie Parker became the odd man out in the Washington Redskins’ three-way veteran running back competition Saturday when he was released as the team set its 53-man roster a week before the start of the regular season. Parker was among 21 players cut before the 6 p.m. deadline. The Redskins also made a trade, sending backup cornerback Justin Tryon to the Indianapolis Colts for an undisclosed…

The Philadelphia Eagles traded starting right guard Stacy Andrews to the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday in exchange for an undisclosed 2011 draft pick. The Eagles did not complete the deal until after the 6 p.m. Eastern deadline for reducing their roster to 53 players, so they were forced to release guard Max Jean-Gilles.

Receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh was sent packing from Seattle on Saturday, cut by the Seahawks after just one season as coach Pete Carroll continued his roster purge. Houshmandzadeh, the Seahawks’ leading receiver last season, was in the second year of a $40 million, five-year deal he signed with Seattle before the 2009 season.

A week before their season begins, the Seattle Seahawks are looking for a new offensive line coach after the sudden retirement of Alex Gibbs on Saturday.

The Arizona Cardinals have released Matt Leinart, parting ways with the former Heisman Trophy winner who was supposed to be the team’s franchise quarterback but couldn’t escape the backup role. The team made the announcement on Saturday, shortly before the Cardinals had to reach their 53-man roster limit.

The Denver Broncos have parlayed their depth at defensive back into plugging a huge hole at tight end. The Broncos traded cornerback Alphonso Smith to the Detroit Lions on Saturday for Dan Gronkowski in a swap of second-year players who have yet to make an impact in the NFL. Although Gronkowski had just one catch for 4 yards in two games last season, at 6-foot-6 and 255 pounds he represents a…
