Jets Release Greg Van Roten
3 years agoThe New York Jets released offensive guard Greg Van Roten on Friday after they claimed guard Nate Herbig off waivers from the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday. The move to release Van Roten clears $3.5 million in salary cap space. Van Roten made 23 starts over the last two seasons after signing a three-year deal with the Jets before the 2020 season. The 32-year-old entered the league as an undrafted free agent in 2012 with the Green Bay Packers, and he spent two seasons with them before joining the Carolina Panthers from 2017-19. Free-agent pickup Laken Tomlinson is expected to join Alijah Vera-Tucker as the Jets starting offensive guards this year. Herbig will be a top backup.
