The Jets on Tuesday waived backup offensive lineman Oday Aboushi, who had been reinstated after being suspended for Sunday's regular-season opener for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy.
The Virginia product was a fifth-round pick of former general manager John Idzik in 2013.
Aboushi was inactive for all 16 games of his rookie season, but last year, he started the final 10 games in place of left guard Brian Winters, who was placed on injured reserve after tearing a knee ligament.
On Jan. 10, Aboushi was arrested in Morris Plains, New Jersey, following a traffic stop. According to a release issued by police, officers detected "the odor of burnt marijuana'' coming from Aboushi's black Cadillac Escalade and, after they were given consent to search the vehicle, found "a small amount'' of marijuana and "suspected drug paraphernalia.
