Jets Meet With WR Brice Butler

Wide receiver Brice Butler visited the Jets on Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN.com tweets. As Quincy Enunwa and Robby Anderson deal with injuries, Butler may help fill the void.

Butler averaged 21.1 yards per catch last season with the Cowboys and parlayed that work into a two-year Arizona deal. He did not end up making the Cardinals’ 53-man roster, though, and returned to the Cowboys as roster depth for a shaky receiving corps. Earlier this week, the Cowboys put him back on the curb after trading for Amari Cooper.

The Jets recently brought Rishard Matthews into the fold and he could serve as one of their top three receivers when they face the Bears on Sunday. Jermaine Kearse, Andre Roberts, Charone Peake, and Deontay Burnett round out the WR depth chart, but one of the latter two could be displaced in favor of Butler.
