The Jets have released 32-year old WR Laveranues Colts. Coles played in 3 pre-season games for the Jets this year and he caught 4 passes for 19 yards (4.8 avg). Coles played in 16 games (13 starts) for the Bengals last year in which he caught 43 passes for 514 yards (12.0 avg) with 5 TD grabs. I wouldn’t be surprised if Coles hooked on with another team soon but the Jets liked their other receivers better so I don’t have an issue with this.
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.
The Jets have released 33-year old guard Alan Faneca who made the Pro Bowl last season when he started all 16 games for them. The Jets say he didn’t deserve it which is like kicking a man while he is down. Faneca started all 32 games in his two years with the Jets. Faneca is a 6-time Pro Bowler who will have little problem finding a new job for 2010.
The Jets have released 29-year old cornerback Donald Strickland. Strickland played in 9 games for the Jets last season and he had 26 tackles, 2 sacks, 1 tackle for a loss, 1 forced fumble and 2 passes defensed. The Jets will look to upgrade the nickel cornerback spot in either the draft or free agency.
The Jets have released 28-year old cornerback Lito Sheppard. Sheppard played in 11 games for the Jets last season and he made 31 tackles, defensed 8 passes and he had 1 interception. Sheppard was a huge disappointment last season for the Jets and he will be easily replaced.
