Revis, selected 14th overall after New York traded up to draft him, missed 22 practices — including today's single practice — and the team's preseason opener last Friday against Atlanta since training camp started July 27.

"It was tough," Revis said tonight. "Basically being a competitor and being the type of football player that I am, I didn't want to sit there and see my teammates playing. I was frustrated for a while, but I just looked at the positive side of it and let my agents handle it."

Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum said the team and Revis' agents, Neil Schwartz and Jonathan Feinsod, agreed in principle to a deal late last night.

"We're glad it's over," Tannenbaum said.

The only reason Revis didn't practice today was because the contract — deemed "very complicated" by Tannenbaum — needed to be reviewed by the league's management council and was still being finalized last night.

"I think it was sophisticated and unique," Schwartz said.

Tannenbaum wouldn't address the length of the deal, other than to say, "it was 47 pages."

"I think it's a fair contract," he said. "I think it's good for both sides. We expect Darrelle to be here for a number of years, and we're glad that the contract's behind us and we're looking forward to seeing him out on the field."

Schwartz echoed Tannenbaum's sentiments.

"All the John Hancocks are going to be on the contract, so it's definitely a win-win," Schwartz said.

Tannenbaum said Revis had already received his playbook and would participate in the team's walkthrough tomorrow. Revis said he passed the team's conditioning test, but it was uncertain if coach Eric Mangini would play him in the Jets' game against Minnesota on Friday night.

"He'll play when Eric feels he's ready," Tannenbaum said.

Added Revis: "That's up to Coach Mangini."
