Roster News: Jets to release Berrios

While we await potential quarterback news, the Jets look set to create some cap space:

Jets are releasing WR Braxton Berrios at the start of the league year next week, per source. The two sides discussed a restructuring of his contract but were unable to reach agreement. His release will save $5 million against Jets’ cap.

This comes a day after it was confirmed that the Jets restructured CJ Uzomah's contract to create a further $3.6m in cap space.

Berrios had a disappointing season in 2022 both as a receiver and return man, having seemed to be on the verge of a breakout at the end of 2021. It will be interesting to see if he can get a bigger role with a less talented team.
