The New York Jets will start Michael Vick at quarterback this Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Vick replaced Geno Smith this past week after the second-year quarterback threw three interceptions in the first quarter.

"This is not looking long term, this is about the immediate," Ryan said. "My focus is on Kansas City and finding a way to get a win. That's why this decision was made."

Vick, who signed a one-year contract last offseason, isn't considered part of the Jets' future. 

"I think it's a great opportunity," said Vick, adding that he wishes it didn't have to be against Andy Reid. "Any time you get named to be the starter, it's a great thing. I think you have to relish it, but also take it extremely serious, and understand what's at stake and what needs to be done."

Percy Harvin is excited for a fresh start with the New York Jets after being traded by the Seattle Seahawks in controversial fashion.

"Whatever they say happened in the Seahawks' locker room, it's all in the past," Harvin said.

Harvin will have a clean slate with the Jets, Rex Ryan said.

"I really put it all behind me once I got here," Harvin said. "What people are saying right now, it doesn't mean much to me. My teammates have embraced me, my brothers here, so I'm looking more forward. I'm looking forward to my time here as a New York Jet."

Harvin has primarily been used in the slot or as a gadget receiver, but he said he would like to do more and he believes he has the speed and route-running ability to be an outside receiver.

"I'm looking to take my game to the next level," Harvin said.

The New York Jets have signed Jeremy Kerley to a four-year, $16 million contract extension.

Kerley turns 26 on Nov. 8 and the timing of the deal is somewhat surprsing since the Jets just acquired Percy Harvin.

Kerley has only seven catches for 60 yards and no touchdowns over the last four games.

While Percy Harvin wore out his welcome with the Seattle Seahawks, the New York Jets are excited to add a player of his caliber.

"This could be a potential coup for the New York Jets," general manager John Idzik said.

At 1-6, the Jets are non-contenders, but Idzik insisted "it's not too late."

Idzik said the Jets did "a ton of background work" on Harvin, who has a history of altercations with teammates and coaches. Idzik, a former Seahawks executive, said his familiarity with his former team was an "advantage" as they performed due diligence.

"It's about looking forward, understanding what may have happened in the past -- I wasn't there, he was," Idzik said. "That's really in the rear-view mirror. It's about learning from your experiences, like everybody else, and we're looking forward."

Rex Ryan was agitated and seemingly disheartened when he faced the media after the New York Jets lost 27-25 to the New England Patriots.

Kimberley Martin of Newsday writes that Ryan punched a wall on his way into the press conference, just after cursing under his breath. He then tried to compose himself and went to face reporters.

The Seahawks have agreed to trade wide receiver Percy Harvin to the Jets, sources confirmed to ESPN.

Seattle will receive a conditional draft pick in 2015, which will range from a second- to fourth-round pick, a source told ESPN's John Clayton.

Fox Sports first reported the trade, which it says is contingent on Harvin passing a physical. 

Dee Milliner likely tore his Achilles in the first half of the New York Jets' loss to the Denver Broncos.

The injury would end his season.

Milliner has battled with injuries for much of his brief career after being selected with the ninth overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft. He suffered a high ankle sprain this summer that cost him three games.
