New York Jets may target Demario Douglas if released by Patriots
Summary

Demario Douglas, a receiver for the New England Patriots, may face release as the team finalizes its roster. With a crowded receiving group, Douglas's decrease in usage during the 2023 season has raised questions about his future. If cut, sources indicate the New York Jets could be interested in signing Douglas to bolster their receiving corps, which currently lacks depth. Douglas has one year remaining on his contract before hitting free agency, while teammate Efton Chism III could also be vulnerable in roster decisions.
