Jets Reduce to 53 with 23 Player Moves
The Jets today have cut 21 players and two players, TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins and WR Jalin Marshall, are now on the reserve/suspended list, bringing their roster to 53 players.
Seventeen players were waived, including DL Deon Simon, the Jets' seventh-round pick (223rd overall) in the 2015 draft. Simon played in all 16 games last season, posting 28 tackles, 1.5 sacks and 1.5 tackles for loss.
Also waived was DL Lawrence Thomas, who played in the Jets' first two games last season before going on Injured Reserve.
