Playing With Heavy Heart, Jets’ Ealy Dominates on D-Line

Eariler this week, Jets defensive lineman Kony Ealy was missing from practice for what the team was only call an excused absence. After a stellar effort that saw Ealy swat down three Blake Bortles passes, intercepting one of them, the team revealed why the lineman was away, and it’s a heartbreaking situation.
