Well, yesterday I reported he was fighting for a spot. Today there is bad news to report, as JP was cut from the Jets. We all wish him the best in his quest to play in the NFL. We KNOW he is capable of helping a team out there. Story here.
John Paul Foschi signed with the Jets as a rookie free agent following the 2004 NFL Draft. Foschi started 21 games in his Georgia Tech career and made 41 receptions for 377 yards and four touchdowns. He was an honorable mention All-ACC selection in his senior season. The 6-4, 270-pound tight end made seven catches for 72 yards in four preseason games.
Here's another story on Foschi:
The inevitable news came yesterday for Ian Smart and J.P. Foschi, two Long Island kids whose dream of making the Jets' roster ended.
Foschi, who was born in Queens and graduated from Chaminade High School, tied with Ricks for the team lead with seven receptions this preseason. But there was no room for either with Anthony Becht and Chris Baker ahead of them on the depth chart and with difficult decisions to be made at linebacker and in the secondary.
