The New England Patriots have exercised the 2020 option year on cornerback Jason McCourty’s contract. McCourty signed a two-year, $11 million contract last offseason, but the presence of a $500,000 option bonus to activate the second year of the pact was notable. … The Miami Dolphins are releasing two-time Pro Bowl safety Reshad Jones. The move, which will become official March 18, frees up $5.3 million against the Dolphins’ salary cap. … The Tennessee Titans released running back Dion Lewis and linebacker Cameron Wake.
