G Brian Winters – $7.5 million
Winters is in the final year of the four-year, $29 million contract he signed in 2016 and will likely be released before his eighth season in New York. He’s been a solid guard on the Jets offensive line, but has battled injuries and shouldn’t be considered a key factor in the Jets’ long-term plans. He has no real ties to Joe Douglas or Adam Gase, who both will look to upgrade the entire offensive line. Winters is a good veteran lineman but is expendable given the Jets’ desire to build a better overall roster.
Verdict: Likely cut
