Harrison, 29, spent the first three years of his career with the Colts before joining the Jets in 2017. He played in 40 games for New York, starting 19.

A dependable backup over the last three years, Harrison is a surprise cut considering the emphasis the Jets have placed on the offensive line this season. In addition, Harrison was a well-respected veteran leader in the locker room.

With Harrison announcing his release, he joins LB James Burgess on the list of Jets cuts thus far.
