The quick exit of third-rounder Jachai Polite from the Jets...

[gmf1369]

So why did the Jets cut the cord on 2019 third-round draft pick Jachai Polite? While his on-field performance surely was a factor, disciplinary issues apparently came into play.

Per a league source, Polite was fined more than $100,000 for tardiness and other issues regarding doing things he shouldn’t have done or not doing things he should have been doing.

It’s not that Polite can’t afford to pay the fines. As the fourth pick in round three, he received a $1.122 million signing bonus from the Jets.

Unclaimed on waivers, Polite now will have a chance to prove himself as a member of the Seahawks’ practice squad.

Takes a lot of tardiness to add up to 100K - good bye

Making more sense why the Jets didn’t even want to give this waste of space a place on the practice squad.

He will end up on drugs or dead or 5 years or less.

Another wasted draft pick by Mac... thank God we have a real GM that has the ability and fortitude to do the right thing for the NY jets. When was the last time any of us could say that?

IMO, the coach bowles maccagnan era was the most incompetent HC/GM tandem in jets history..

i'm optimistic we got it right this time & i love that both gase & douglas are offensive minded guys who understand what they have in darnold..
