The Jets on Saturday announced they have waived six players: CB Mario Goodrich, T Samuel Jackson, TE Neal Johnson, WR Dymere Miller, DT Fatorma Mullbah and WR Ontaria “Pokey” Wilson.<\/p>\n
Goodrich (6-0, 186), a second-year player from Clemson, was claimed off waivers from the Broncos on Aug. 2 and had 8 tackles in preseason action.<\/p>\n
Jackson (6-5, 325), a first-year offensive lineman from Central Florida, signed with the Jets on July 23. Initially a UDFA who signed with Jacksonville in 2023, Jackson also played with the Houston Roughnecks of the UFL.<\/p>\n
Johnson (6-4, 250), a first-year TE from Louisiana, had 2 catches and 27 yards receiving in the preseason. He signed a reserves\/future deal with the Jets in January.<\/p>\n
Miller (5-11, 184) led Rutgers last season with 757 receiving yards to go with 59 catches and 4 touchdowns. He was one of 15 UDFAs to sign with the Jets on May 9 and had 2 kick returns for 33 yards and one 24-yard reception in preseason play.<\/p>\n
Mullbah (6-4, 306) recorded 75 total tackles and 7.5 TFL at West Virginia over 26 games before joining the Jets in May. He totaled 3 tackles this summer season.<\/p>\n
Wilson (6-0, 175) averaged 12.7 yards on his three catches this preseason. The first-year wideout, a Florida State product, played with the CFL’s Winnipeg Blue Bombers in 2024 and hauled in 71 passes for 1,026 yards and 3 touchdowns.<\/p>\n
The Jets must reduce their roster to 53 players by Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET. They will also be able to build a practice squad of 16 players (or 17 if a player is part of the International Pathway Program).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Jets on Saturday announced they have waived six players: CB Mario Goodrich, T Samuel Jackson, TE Neal…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":311995,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2051],"tags":[5016,7,226,929,1917,255,88,2321,2097,6,3571],"class_list":{"0":"post-311994","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york-jets","8":"tag-ethan-greenberg","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-jets","11":"tag-latest-headlines","12":"tag-new-york","13":"tag-new-york-jets","14":"tag-news","15":"tag-newyork","16":"tag-newyorkjets","17":"tag-nfl","18":"tag-transactions"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115079920132284790","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/311994","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=311994"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/311994\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/311995"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=311994"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=311994"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=311994"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
