Jets' Calvin Pace on training camp: 'A lot of this stuff is real monotonous to me'

Wednesday marks the New York Jets' final training camp practice at SUNY Cortland, which should come as a relief to linebacker Calvin Pace.

The 33-year-old is entering his seventh season with the Jets, and has come to know the Cortland campus very well - maybe a little too well. Speaking with Darryl Slater of the Newark Star-Ledger, Pace admitted camp has lost its luster.

"Going on 12 years, a lot of this stuff is real monotonous to me," Pace said Saturday. "It is. It really is. I look at my game and I need to get better at just the little things [like] foot work. I need to become a better pass rusher. Just small things. A lot of times, when I look at film, I'm never satisfied, so I can get better."

Not that Pace doesn't enjoy what he does for a living, he just finds the camp experience tedious. 

"The meetings, coming out here every day," he said. "It's uncomfortable. I'm 33 years old, staying in a dorm room with a roommate. It's one of those things [where] you think when you get out of college, you never have to come back to that. But every year, we're forced to. But I know what it is. It's part of it. So one more week and back to normalcy."

Pace, who signed a two-year, $5-million extension with the Jets in March, had a career-high 10 sacks last season.
