Jets Make Shock Move, Let Go of Veteran Punter in Surprising Tuesday Decision
Sometimes, the game isn’t just played on the field—it’s also in the boardroom and the back offices. Take the New York Jets, for example. Out of nowhere this week, they’ve shown us that even a steady hand like Thomas Morstead isn’t immune to the ruthless churn of NFL youth movements. How often do we see a seasoned punter, still firing 48-yard bombs and pinning foes deep, get the boot just as he’s settling into family moments? It’s the kind of curveball that makes you wonder—does experience count in the league’s cold calculus, or is it all about the next fresh leg poised to flip field position and fortunes? Whatever the case, the Jets are clearing cap space and hitting the reset button on their punting squad, signaling a shift in philosophy under new leadership. It’s a reminder: in football, as in life, loyalty can be fleeting—but opportunity, for someone younger and hungrier, is just a snap away.
