07/29/2010 - Florham Park, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Jets placed running back and 2010 draft pick Joe McKnight on the active non-football injury list Thursday after he failed a conditioning test.
McKnight, who was taken by the Jets in the fourth round out of Southern California, apparently battled cramping and dehydration during the Jets' rookie minicamp.
He will not be able to practice with the team until he passes that test, but will still be part of the 80-man roster for the start of training camp in Cortland, New York.
In addition, the Jets placed quarterback Erik Ainge on the reserve/non- football injury list with an undisclosed illness, signed safety Emanuel Cook and released linebacker Ezra Butler.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect
LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.
Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.
Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
