Lorenzo Mauldin didn't hesitate.
The Jets outside linebacker, squarely on the roster bubble entering this week's final preseason game, was asked Sunday if he believes he has done enough to make the team.
"I mean, yeah," he said. "I'm coming back off a back injury. We've got seven good guys in our [outside linebacker] room. I'm not going to say that I'm the main guy. If the coaches feel like I'm able to stay, so be it."
Mauldin recently posted a cryptic tweet that appeared to indicate he knew his release was coming.
