The New York Jets made quite a few surprising — and some would argue controversial — wide receiver moves following the conclusion of the preseason last summer. Perhaps the most shocking move was the decision to release Tyler Johnson.
Johnson had worked with the first-team offense for most of the summer and was expected to play an important role in the team's receiving corps in 2025. That's why it was quite the stunner when Johnson was let go shortly after roster cuts.
The Jets immediately re-signed the former Los Angeles Rams wideout to their practice squad, but it was still a surprise to many who expected Johnson to be a part of the offense.
