Nate Hairston

Will Nate Hairston be cut prior to the beginning of training camp? Probably not considering New York’s lack of depth at cornerback. However, there is an outside chance Hairston gets released before Thursday, which lands him on this list.

Hairston was a disappointment in his first season with the Jets. New York also had plenty of talented undrafted free agent corners on its roster entering training camp. Combine those two factors and you have a player who could be on the verge of becoming an unexpected cut.

Joe Douglas traded for Hairston last offseason for a reason, but his patience could be running thin with the Temple product after how poorly he performed last season. If Douglas decides he has seen enough and wants to give a younger player a shot in camp, Hairston will be out.
