NEW YORK (AP) – Sal Alosi has resigned as strength and conditioning coach of the New York Jets, less than two months after he was caught tripping an opposing player during a punt return.
Alosi’s resignation was announced by the team Monday.
He was initially suspended without pay for the rest of the season and fined $25,000 by the team for sticking out his knee to trip Miami’s Nolan Carroll during a Dec. 12 game at Meadowlands Stadium. He was suspended indefinitely by the team after acknowledging he ordered players to form a wall along the sideline.
Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum said Alosi decided after speaking with team officials “that it is best for him to tender his resignation.”
