March 5 (UPI) -- The New York Jets plan to cut veteran tight end C.J. Uzomah, a league source told UPI on Tuesday. His release will result in a cost savings of $5.3 million for the AFC East franchise.
Uzomah, 31, signed a three-year, $24 million contract with the Jets in 2022. He was set to account for $11.2 million against the Jets' salary cap.
