New York Jets RB Matt Forte is believed to be on the final roster bubble, in the opinion of ESPNNewYork.com’s Rich Cimini. Cimini cites Forte’s age and the presence of RB Bilal Powell and rookie RB Elijah McGuire as the main reasons for Forte’s potential departure.

Footballguys View: Let’s be honest the only value in the Jets offense is in the backfield, and that is hampered a bit because we don’t know how they will sort carries between Forte and Bilal Powell. So removing Forte would do nothing but clear that up. Given how the Jets have been jettisoning veterans all offseason, it’s surprising this didn’t happen quite a while ago.
