What seemed like a steal just a couple years ago has looked like a bitter disappointment. Giacomini has been often penalized and often injured. It’s time for the Jets to move onto the future.

This is something they’ve embraced since putting Breno on IR this week. Brandon Shell, who they traded up in the draft for, is the tackle of the future. The Jets would create $4.5M in salary cap space by cutting Giacomini (with $625,000 in dead money attached).
