Eighteen are now gone. Seventy-one suddenly remain. By 4 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 2, 2018, 53 will be the final number for Week 1 of the 2018 NFL season.
The 18 players that were cut by the New York Jets include veteran edge rusher David Bass and free agent pick and inside linebacker, Kevin Minter. These are only two of the 18 who we had projected to make the cut earlier this week.
Other notables include recently-signed quarterback John Wolford, running back George Atkinson, exciting guard Dakoda Shepley and veteran wideout Charles Johnson.
