JAGS CUT 11: The Jacksonville Jaguars cut 11 players from their roster Monday, including veteran tight end Jermaine Wiggins and safety Nick Sorensen.

Linebacker Jorge Cordova, wide receiver Jimmy Farris and fullback Derrick Wimbush were also released.

Wiggins signed as a free agent from Minnesota last spring to help fill a void at tight end but became expandable with the return of George Wrighster from a torn rotator cuff. Wiggins had one catch for 1 yard in three preseason games.

Jets release Dwight: Veteran wide receiver Tim Dwight was among eight players released by the New York Jets on Monday.

The Jets reached the 75-man roster limit a day ahead of the cutdown deadline by also releasing defensive end Darrell Adams, defensive tackle Zarnell Fitch, running back Tony Hollings, cornerback Rayshaun Kizer, offensive lineman Nick Smith and wide receivers Dante Ridgeway and Juan Wong.

Dwight, in his 10th NFL season and second with the Jets, was on the physically unable to perform list all summer. He had 16 catches — nine on third-down plays — for 112 yards before he injured a foot and missed the last five regular-season games and New York's playoff game at New England.
