    Ex-New York Jet turned NFL television analyst Kris Jenkins criticized his former team on Wednesday, calling the Jets' locker room "catty" and saying it only got that way because the team cut all its veteran leadership before the start of the season.

    "Now, these are the players who are going to have the heart and the passion to get things in order when things don't work," Jenkins, referring to himself, Damien Woody and Shaun Ellis, who were all let go by the Jets in the offseason, said during his appearance on ESPN 1050's "The Mike Lupica Show."

    "These are the guys that set the tempo in your training camps. These are gonna be the guys that make things go accordingly to plan," Jenkins said. "Now, they just erased that off their team. Now you have guys that, yeah, they're good, they can play their positions, but they don't have the experience to take on those responsibilities, so what happens? You get a catty locker room."
