The New York Jets are releasing injured wide receiver Terrelle Pryor on Saturday, a league source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Pryor has a tear in his groin and is expected to miss about two weeks.
The Jets are interested in bringing Pryor back when he’s healthy, a source told Schefter, but other teams also are likely to be interested.
The former Ohio State quarterback caught a touchdown pass in each of the Jets’ past two games, against the Broncos and Colts. He has 14 receptions for 235 yards on the season.
Pryor had surgery to repair a fracture ankle in May — his second ankle surgery in less than a year. He had only 20 receptions for 240 yards and a touchdown in nine games for the Washington Redskins in 2017.
He signed a one-year, $4 million deal with the Jets in March.
