Jets move training camp location due to lockout

NEW YORK (AP) The New York Jets will conduct their training camp at their facility in New Jersey and not at Cortland State University, where they trained the past two summers.

The Jets become the second NFL team to change training camp plans because of the owners' lockout of the players, now in its fourth month. Baltimore announced the same decision this week, electing to remain at the Ravens' complex rather than hold camp at Winchester, Md.

Training camps open in late July.

Citing "all the variables presented by this unique offseason," Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum says the team felt it was best to remain at its practice facility in Florham Park, N.J.

He said the Jets plan to train in Cortland in 2012.
