The New York Jets released guard Brian Winters on Sunday after 89 career games with the team. Winters, who started 79 of those, was the Jets' longest-tenured player. Winters, 29, played in just nine games for the Jets last season after a shoulder injury landed him on injured reserve.

The Jets save $7.28 million in cap space for this year. The Jet selected Winters in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft out of Kent State.
