Jets LB Donahue figuring out 'how to carry on' after month in alcohol rehab

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Dylan Donahue is trying to rebuild his life and his football career, one day at a time. It isn't easy.

He is facing drunken driving charges in two states -- Montana and New Jersey -- and he's less than two months removed from a 31-day stint in an alcohol-rehab facility in Jacksonville, Florida. He's thankful to still have a job with the New York Jets, because, after the second arrest, he feared termination. He's grateful to head coach Todd Bowles, who played with his father, former linebacker Mitch Donahue, with the San Francisco 49ers in 1991.
