The New York Jets have released 30-year old TE Ben Hartsock. Hartsock played in all 16 games for the Jets last season and he caught 1 pass for 7 yards. He played in 32 games in his two years with the Jets and he caught 2 passes for 9 yards (4.5 avg). Hartsock is a run blocking TE so the Jets should be able to replace him pretty easily.
The Jets have released 33-year old OT Damien Woody. Woody played in 13 games (all starts) for the Jets last season. He played in 45 games (all starts) in three years with the Jets. The Jets will have to sign a free agent or draft a tackle to replace Woody. I don’t really like this move for the Jets.
The New York Jets have released 24-year old DE/OLB Vernon Gholston. He played in 16 games for the Jets last season and he had 12 tackles and 1 tackle for a loss. Gholston played in 45 games in his three years with the Jets and he had 42 tackles and 0 sacks. Gholston was a 1st round pick in 2008 for the Jets who envisioned him as a big time pass rusher. They were way off on that one. The Jets won’t miss Gholston at all going forward.
The Jets have released 31-year old DT Kris Jenkins. Jenkins only played in 1 game for the Jets last season and he had 1 tackle. Jenkins played in 23 games in 3 years with the Jets and he had 64 tackles, 3.5 sacks, 2 passes defensed and 1 forced fumble. Jenkins had a solid year back in 2008 for the Jets, but he has been very injury prone and ineffective the last two years. The Jets did fine without Jenkins last season and I don’t think they will miss him too much.
The Jets have released 36-year old DE/OLB Jason Taylor. Taylor played in all 16 games for the Jets last season and he had 36 tackles, 5 tackles for a loss, 5 sacks, 6 passes defensed, 2 forced fumbles and 2 fumble recoveries. Taylor was effective in his role as a pass rusher so I’m a little surprised that the Jets cut him to save a few bucks. They will have to replace Taylor in either the draft or free agency because they really lack a decent pass rusher.
