Roster News: Jets release Blessuan Austin
A surprise move here as the Jets are letting a projected starter loose.
#Jets are releasing CB Bless Austin, source says. Surprise here, though they had talks with teams to see if they could trade him recently.

Unless they have someone else lined up, this likely means a rookie would start across from Bryce Hall.
