So, Stewart remains under team control for the time being and will be available as an injury replacement during the season and potentially to battle for a role next season if he remains with the team all year. The third round pick had a disappointing rookie season and was suspended for the first two games of the regular season.
Burnett, a collegiate teammate of Sam Darnold's at USC, had a promising preseason, but lasted just a few weeks on the Jets practice squad.
