Sorry if this has been posted anywhere else, but Kelechi Osemele just got cut by the Jets.

Pretty good guard from the sound of it. Even though he's hurt and just had a surgery, worth taking a small risk on?

He was a Pro Bowler in 2016-17. Got hurt when w/Raiders in '18, reaggravated injury in camp and season.

At this point, though, he'll have the rest to actually rehab it by camp. No need to try to beat the rush in getting him just yet. The risk is small though to bring him into camp and see how he performs. I would put less than a $9M guaranteed contract on him, but he shouldn't be punished for how the Jets handled this situation.

Here's a Jets board talking about the release: https://www.ganggreennation.com/2019/10 ... as-surgery
