Jets Host Trio of Free Agents

With plenty of holes to fill, the New York Jets hosted several options today.

With the likely departure of outside linebacker Calvin Pace, the Jets are in need of an edge-setting presence in his absence which is why they had Ravens linebacker Courtney Upshaw in for a face to face.

Upshaw, who was chosen in the second round (35th overall) in the 2012 draft, has been somewhat of a disappointment through his first four pro seasons. Despite appearing in 64 career games, 51 of them starts, Upshaw has managed just 110 tackles and 5 sacks. Even still, he’s held up well in run support and is one of the top remaining linebackers on the market and will likely come cheap.
