The Jets inched closer to the NFL's mandatory 53-player roster limit as they waived-injured CB Dee Milliner and waived TE Jace Amaro.
Milliner appeared in 21 games for the Green & White while totaling 68 tackles, 3 INT and 19 PD. He was slowed this preseason by a hamstring injury. After playing 13 games as a rookie, Milliner was limited to two games and five games the next two years with Achilles and wrist injuries respectively. The Alabama product was the No. 9 overall selection in the 2013 NFL Draft.
Amaro led all rookie tight ends in receptions (3834) and receiving yards (345).
