The New York Jets’ preseason game against the Carolina Panthers was the biggest snoozer we’ve seen in a long time. It’s hard to pick players who stood out because, well, no one really did. But it was a critical game for the players on the Jets’ roster fringes who are fighting for a spot either on the Jets’ 53-man roster, some other team’s roster, or at least on a practice squad.
Consider this: players on an NFL practice squad make a minimum of $12,500 per week. That goes up to $16,800 with at least two accrued seasons and a maximum of $21,300.
