The Jets are arguably the thinnest they have ever been at cornerback. Could they turn to a player that has plenty of experience playing in New York to help solve those woes?

The Bears released Amukamara in February in an effort to free up salary cap space. This affords the Jets the opportunity to add a veteran corner who is familiar with the rigors of the New York market and still has some good football left in him.

Amukamara isn’t a No. 1 cornerback anymore, but the Jets don’t need him to be one. The 30-year-old could be a very solid No. 2 for New York in 2020 if it chooses to pursue him.
