The #Jets have released WR Kenbrell Thompkins, per source — Kimberley A. Martin (@KMart_LI) September 3, 2016 An in-season addition last year, Thompkins came in to camp with a good shot to make the roster after the team retained him for close to $2 million this off-season, but he’s been plagued by injuries throughout training camp.

ASH1962 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I liked Thompkins, but he did have the propensity to drop balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARodJetsFan Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I didn't even hear about Ross being let go. With Ross & Thompkins gone, Anderson, Marshall & Peake's chances just got ALOT better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, very happy with what Anderson has shown thus far. The kid seems like a natural at WR. Very good route runner, soft hands and he likes to attack the football at it's highest point.

A WR is supposed to catch the ball and he did little of that. I like Peake, Anderson and I also liked Ross, but he was cut. I hope Jalen Marshall makes it.
