Jets replace Quinton Coples with linebacker from Colts' practice squad

The New York Jets replaced former first-round pick Quinton Coples with another outside linebacker, Josh Martin.

Who?

Martin was a member of the Indianapolis Colts' practice squad, but he was lured away by the Jets' offer to join their 53-man roster. He has NFL experience. He played 21 games with the Kansas City Chiefs, recording a half-sack and 28 tackles. He also spent time with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

He broke into the NFL in 2012 as an undrafted free agent out of Columbia -- yes, the Ivy League school.
