Yesterday during the show, we found out about Tommy DeVito likely being released.

0:03.8

He was indeed.

0:04.5

And Brian Daibble didn't talk about it because it wasn't official at the time.

0:07.1

Fair enough.

0:08.0

I think we both agree he's not going to be on the practice squad.

0:11.3

Someone will sign him.

0:12.6

I actually was waiting to find out this morning if someone signed him overnight.

0:15.1

I thought it happened this morning.

0:16.3

Yeah.

0:16.6

And it might still.

0:17.6

I mean, it's 8 o'clock in the morning. Who knows? But did anything, they, I know Chris brought up the Malachi Corley release yesterday.

0:25.3

And you talk about the upside that kid had when they drafted him.

0:29.4

Are you surprised you're sitting here and he is basically waived?

0:33.5

Yeah, because when they drafted him, they wanted him to be the compliment to Garrett Wilson, right? And everything that we've heard about this kid thus far has been somewhat disappointing from not being able to retain the playbook, him feeling like he should have been a day one guy. And it was like, how are you going to be a day one guy? You don't even know the playbook, right? On top of him, you know, from all reports that he's not been the best

0:55.4

guy in the locker room, so to speak. So I just thought he was with Devonthe Adams leaving

1:02.2

Garrett now stepping into the number one spot, he would have been great in the slot for the Jets.

1:07.2

And so that's just disheartening because the Jets need everything. I mean, they need all hands on deck going into the season. So I thought he was going to be a legit weapon. Like Feeke said, there was so much expectation about this kid being to be a big time third down receiver and his ability to catch the ball and do things after the catch. Now he's not on the roster. So it just seems like when we talked about Jacobi Myers yesterday, it seems like

1:29.3

this is a guy that the Jets need now because he's going to have to be a compliment to Garrett Wilson if they can get him. Yeah, and that was the whole thing back and forth with Samini and Aaron Glenn the other day about needing a receiver, going to get a receiver and really not giving you. Not that I would expect him to give an answer in that scenario, but I think we all agree.

1:27.3

Yeah, because Alan was already in it.

1:28.6

Like, I got no disrespect to Alan Lazzar, but he, I mean, he hasn't been what we expected him to be. So we really just have Garrett Wilson. Now you're trusting a young Mason Taylor to be what, the next Brock Bowers. I think that's unfair you got a lot i could to you know grow into

2:03.5

the NFL so it's we'll see i saw Nate newton talking about cut down day and how you know

2:09.8

if you get cut you're cut for a reason essentially like there's 53 guys if you're not one of the
