Source: Eyeing Aaron Rodgers, Jets free up $15.2M in cap room

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Preparing for free agency and the possible addition of quarterback Aaron Rodgers, the New York Jets have created $15.2 million in salary cap room by restructuring three veteran contracts.

They reworked the contracts of three players from their 2022 free agent class: guard Laken Tomlinson, cornerback D.J. Reed and tight end Tyler Conklin, a source told ESPN's Field Yates on Saturday.

Previously, the Jets restructured the contract of tight end C.J. Uzomah, another member of the 2022 class, and released wide receiver Braxton Berrios.
