Jets Release LB Alec Ogletree

October 10th, 2020 at 3:35pm CST by Sam Robinson

Alec Ogletree‘s atypical stay with the Jets may be at an end. The Jets announced they have released the veteran linebacker, doing so to make room for Le’Veon Bell‘s return and practice squad promotions.

The Jets could stash Ogletree back on their practice squad, which is how he originally caught on with Gang Green despite his seven seasons of experience as a starter. Ogletree does not have to go through waivers, with the trade deadline not yet here, so the former first-round pick is back in free agency.

A two-year Giants starter and five-year Rams first-stringer before heading to New York, Ogletree played in two Jets games. He made one start, upon being promoted from the Jets’ taxi squad in Week 2. After not playing in Week 3, the 29-year-old defender saw action in a reserve capacity last week. Ogletree played 56% of Gang Green’s snaps in both Week 2 and Week 4.

While Bell is officially back on the Jets’ active roster, the team also promoted quarterback Mike White, offensive lineman Jimmy Murray and cornerback Lamar Jackson. They also waived wide receiver Josh Malone.

With Sam Darnold out against the Cardinals, the Jets are starting Joe Flacco. They also have James Morgan on their active roster; White will make four QBs on the team’s 55-man Sunday roster. A former Cowboys fifth-round pick in 2018, White has not dressed for a game.

NFL Practice Squad Updates: 10/5/20

October 5th, 2020 at 5:41pm CST by Andrew Ortenberg

Today’s practice squad updates will be posted here:

New York Giants

Signed: WR Alex Bachman, DT David Moa
Cut: WR Johnny Holton

New York Jets

Signed: QB Mike White

White was a fifth-round pick of the Cowboys out of Western Kentucky in 2018. He signed with the Jets’ practice squad the following year and spent most of the 2019 season there. He was on the active roster for a bit this season before being cut last week. Holton has spent time with the Raiders, Eagles, and Steelers, and he had 218 yards and three touchdowns with the Raiders in 2017. He was a special teamer in Pittsburgh last year.

We’ve got another busy day of workouts, with many teams across the league hosting players.

NFL Workout Updates: 9/7/19

September 7th, 2019 at 9:33pm CST by Andrew Ortenberg

We’ve got another big batch of workouts, all courtesy of veteran NFL reporter Howard Balzer (on Twitter).

Cleveland Browns

DT Ricky Walker

Houston Texans

Ps Ryan Allen, Matt Wile; LB Christian Kuntz; LS Carson Tinker

Indianapolis Colts

LB Tre’ Crawford; DE Jamell Garcia-Williams; CBs Quenton Meeks, Jackson Porter; S Jonathan Owens

Jacksonville Jaguars

WRs Terry Godwin, Ishmael Hyman; RB Jeremy McNichols; P Brock Miller

Minnesota Vikings

Safeties Briean Boddy-Calhoun, C.J. Reavis; DT Anthony Zettel

New England Patriots

WRs Deontay Burnett, Amara Darboh, Anthony Johnson, Spencer Schnell; QB Mike White

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Safeties Andrew Adams, Chris Banjo; OTs Dino Boyd, Pace Murphy, Josh Wells; G Bryan Witzmann

The Texans could be looking for specialist help, as they worked out a pair of punters and a longsnapper. Boddy-Calhoun, who worked out for the Vikings, is probably the biggest name on this list. He started at least seven games for the Browns each of the past three seasons, but was released by Houston at final cuts.

Cowboys Get Down To 53

August 31st, 2019 at 8:27pm CST by Andrew Ortenberg

The Cowboys have made their cuts to get down to 53 players. Nothing too surprising on this list, although there is at least one interesting takeaway. The Cowboys cut three running backs, leaving Alfred Morris and Tony Pollard as the only two currently with the team. That’s a strong indicator that the team is expecting Ezekiel Elliott back before Week 1.

Receiver Devin Smith also made the roster as their final receiver, which is a nice feel-good story. Drafted by the Jets 37th overall back in 2015, multiple ACL tears derailed his promising career. Smith has had brutal injury luck and hasn’t appeared in a game since 2016, so this is nice to see.

Waived:

OL Juwann Bushell-Beatty

OL Jake Campos

QB Taryn Christion

RB Jordan Chunn

LB Chris Covington

WR Reggie Davis

CB Treston Decoud

WR Jalen Guyton
