Lost in the news that the Jets failed to disclose that Brett Favre's arm was about to fall off for the second half of last season is the fact that the New York coach at the time is one of the top graduates of the school of injury non-disclosure.
Former Jets coach Eric Mangini learned from the best in keeping injuries close to the vest (Bill Belichick), and it wouldn't be a surprise if he had a big part in this flap. He's being routinely investigated, as is everyone involved in the situation, but with the classic Belichickian-Mangianian-McDanielsian way of approaching hurt players, don't be surprised if this was just part of his plan to keep the end of the season from going down the toilet (which it ended up doing anyway).
