The Jets have cut 25-year old QB Kevin O’Connell.  O’Connell played in three pre-season games for the Jets and he completed 8 of 16 passes (50%) for 70 yards with 0 TD passes and 2 INTs (22.4 QB Rating).  He also carried the ball 2 times for 7 yards (3.5 ypc) for the Jets in the pre-season.  This did not come as much of a surprise with Mark Sanchez, Mark Brunell and Kellen Clemens ahead of O’Connell on the depth chart.

UPDATE:  The Jets have re-signed Kevin O’Connell to a 2-year deal.  O’Connell has a torn labrum in his right shoulder so the Jets have placed him on I.R.
