The Jets didn’t have to make as many cuts as other teams, since they have a pair of players suspended. But they made 19 cuts along with those moves to get to the 53-man roster limit.

Defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson (four games) and offensive lineman Oday Aboushi (one game) are not eligible, and the Jets also placed running back Stevan Ridley on the reserve/physically unable to perform list, which knocks him out for at least the first six weeks.

Veteran linebackers Jason Babin and Joe Mays and quarterbacks Matt Flynn and Josh Johnson topped the list.

They also released wide receivers Shaquelle Evans, Chris Owusu and Walt Powell, tight ends Arthur Lynch and Wes Saxton, running back Daryl Richardson, fullback Julian Howsare, offensive linemen Charles Brown and Wes Johnson, defensive linemen Ronald Talley and Jordan Williams, linebackers Deion Barnes and Taiwan Jones, cornerback Keon Lyn and safety Durell Eskridge.
