Jets Hosting Defensive Linemen For Workouts Including Lamarr Houston & Jaye Howard

According to various reports, the Jets are hosting a number of free agent defensive linemen for workouts on Monday.

Some of the free agents in attendance for the session on Monday include:

Houston, 30, is a former second-round pick of the Raiders back in 2010. After four years in Oakland, the Bears signed Houston to a five-year, $35 million contract that included $15 million guaranteed.

The Bears placed Houston on injured reserve during the preseason and later released him with an injury settlement. Houston had a brief stint with the Texans before he was waived late last season and claimed by the Bears.

In 2017, Houston appeared in 10 games for the Texans and Bears and recorded 17 tackles, five sacks, a forced fumble, a recovery returned for a touchdown and a pass defense.

Howard, 29, is a former fourth-round pick of the Seahawks back in 2012. He lasted just over a year in Seattle before he was waived and later claimed off of waivers by the Chiefs.

Howard re-signed with Kansas City for the 2016 season before he was later cut loose and signed by the Bears. Unfortunately, Chicago released Howard at the start of last season.

In 2016, Howard appeared in eight games for the Chiefs and recorded 24 tackles, one sack and a forced fumble. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 55 interior defensive lineman out of 127 qualifying players.

Bromley, 25, is a former third-round pick of the Giants back in 2014. He played out the final year of his four-year, $3,003,876 rookie contract and is not testing the open market as an unrestricted free agent for the first time in his NFL career.

In 2017, Bromley appeared in all 16 games for the Giants and recorded 21 tackles, one sack and a pass defense.
