Jets Cut RB Travaris Cadet

The Jets have released running back Travaris Cadet, according to ESPN.com’s Adam Schefter (on Twitter). Cadet was signed late last month to help provide depth in the wake of an injury to Matt ForteTravaris Cadet (vertical)

Cadet’s run with the Jets ideally should have ended when Forte returned to the lineup, but Bilal Powell suffered a calf strain just as Forte recovered from turf toe. Now, Powell is finally healthy, giving the Jets three healthy backs when including rookie Eli McGuire. Cadet, who was on the field for just 13 snaps in three contests, has been displaced. His partial season with the Jets ends after three receptions for 26 yards plus three rushing yards.

With both of their top running backs now healthy, the Jets will look to get back to their winning ways on Sunday when they face the Falcons in New Jersey. With a win, they’ll return to the .500 mark.
