3 NY Jets players who could benefit from Tarik Cohen’s retirement

Before his retirement, Tarik Cohen seemed to be on his way to earning a roster spot with the New York Jets. Here are three players who could have a chance to take the spot that Cohen may have filled.

Brandon Codrington, CB

The Jets signed Brandon Codrington as an undrafted free agent out of North Carolina Central. While he’s listed as a cornerback, Codrington’s path to the Jets’ roster would come via special teams.

Codrington was a highly experienced returner in college, returning 69 kickoffs (19.7 average) and 61 punts (12.9). He scored one kickoff return touchdown and three punt return touchdowns.
