Former Arizona football standouts cut on NFL roster deadline day

The NFL’s annual cut deadline day was not kind to former Arizona Wildcats.

A trio of Arizona alums were waived Tuesday, the deadline requiring teams to cut their rosters to 53 players.

The New York Jets released safety Will Parks in an unpopular move among the team’s fanbase.

Parks joined the Jets late last season and recorded seven tackles in three games. The seventh-year veteran out of Philadelphia may join the Jets practice squad if he doesn’t sign on to another roster, according to The Athletic’s Zack Rosenblatt.
