Free-agent linebacker Bart Scott could soon be joining his old defensive coordinator, Rex Ryan, as former Raven in New York.
According to multiple league sources, Scott's en route to visit the Jets. The club is expected to make a strong offer and, according to one source, there's a good chance he'll sign with New York on Friday.
Scott's people were in negotiations with the Ravens deep into Thursday night, and an NFL source indicated that he became the club's top priority late in the proceedings. Sporting News reported early Friday that the Jets had emerged as the favorite for his services.
Scott has also drawn interest from Giants, Chiefs, Browns, Bucs, Broncos and Dolphins early in the free-agency period.
