If there's a high-profile player released by the New York Jets over the next 24 hours, it could be tight end Jace Amaro, a former second-round pick who has failed to live up to expectations.
This is news to Amaro, who told reporters late Thursday night, "I've never really been concerned about making the roster."
Amaro got off to a fast start in training camp, but he wasn't able to transfer his production to the games: Five catches (11 targets) for 35 yards, plus a couple of drops. He tweaked a groin muscle and missed last week's game, but he returned for the preseason finale, playing in 26 of 67 offensive snaps.
