Giants RB Jacobs 'likes how Rex handles business'

BY NICK ST. DENIS

After the Jets and Giants met in December, running back Brandon Jacobs spent some time calling Rex Ryan names to his face and through the media.

But apparently Jacobs actually doesn't mind Ryan.

"I like the way Rex handles his business," Jacobs (pictured) told the New York Times on Monday. "The guys on that team I know, know how I feel."

Jacobs, who may be released this offseason so the Giants can avoid paying him a $500,000 bonus, said he wants to be a Giant but didn't rule out consideration of playing for the Jets -- that's if the Jets would even want him.

"It was a situation," Jacobs said of his post game "conversation" with Ryan. "We were rivals then. There's no apology needed."
