Webb, 24, is a former third-round pick of the Giants back in 2017. He was in the second year of his four-year, $3.61 million contract and set to make a base salary of $604,151 for the 2018 season when the Giants waived him coming out of the preseason.
The Jets later signed Webb to their practice squad before promoting him to their active roster in November of last year.
New York re-signed him to a one-year futures contract back in March.
He has yet to appear in an NFL game.
During his four-year college career with Texas Tech and California, Webb recorded 841 completions on 1,367 attempts (61.5 percent) for 9,852 passing yards (7.2 YPA), 83 touchdowns and 34 interceptions.
McGuire, 25, is a former sixth-round pick of the Jets back in 2017. He’s currently in the third year of his four-year, $2.66 million contract and set to make a base salary of $645,000 for the 2019 season.
McGuire, unfortunately, suffered a broken foot last summer and was later placed on injured reserve before being activated during the season.
In 2018, McGuire appeared in eight games for the Jets and rushed for 276 yards on 92 carries (3 YPC) to go along with 19 receptions for 193 yards receiving and four total touchdowns.
