ongoing story. ... Owner Woody Johnson is planning to have dinner next week with embattled QB Mark Sanchez, one of the central figures in the Jets’ locker-room mess. “We’ll be discussing things,” Johnson said. “I always check in on him. He’s very important to the franchise.” The timing is interesting because the Jets have to make a decision on Holmes before next Wednesday, based on a clause in the five-year, $45 million contract he signed before the season.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Team officials have said Holmes, whose season-long rift with Sanchez became public at the end of the season, will be on the team next season. But if they wanted to release him, they’d have to do it by Wednesday to avoid a $15 million guarantee. As it stands now, he’s already guaranteed $7.75 million for 2012. ... Stay tuned. This will be worth watching.
