Antonio Garay And Dan Carpenter Released By NY Jets

Today the New York Jets have Released Defensive Lineman Antonio Garay. Garay was signed as a free agent during the off season by the Jets. The Decision to release Garay was likely made easier by Damon Harrison’s good play in the Pre Season.

The Jets have released DL Antonio Garay, per league source.

Additionally the Jets also released Kicker Dan Carpenter. Carpenter was brought in to compete with Nick Folk for the kicker position. It appears that Nick Folk has once again locked in his position as the Jet’s starting kicker.

Dan Carpenter has been released, per source. Looks like Folk's job. For now. #Jets
