Tim Farrell/The Star-Ledger A cameraman seen on the sideline with Rex Ryan's team Sunday did not violate NFL rules.
A Jets employee seen filming on the sidelines of Sunday's loss to the Patriots was within league rules.
The employee, wearing a lime-green vest, was shown during the CBS broadcast, caught in a still frame posted this morning on Pro Football Talk .
According to the Jets, the camera man in the picture works for Jets TV and shoots footage for the team programming.
Per the NFL’s 2011 policy on sideline media access, video crews that produce and telecast club-licensed programming may also be permitted to have a camera on the sidelines to shoot footage for those programs. They are distinguished on the sideline by wearing lime-green vests.
The Jets will work out former Dolphins FB Lousaka Polite today, according to the National Football Post. As reported yesterday, CB Ellis Lankster will also work out for the team today.
