He was replaced by Blake Martinez.</p><p>Practice squads previously were limited to players with two years or fewer of NFL experience so it is still strange (and no doubt humbling) to see a player of Ogletree’s pedigree added.</p><p><iframe frameborder="no" height="200" scrolling="no"  width="100%" data-src="https://playlist.megaphone.fm?e=ADL7846858249&#038;light=true" class="lazyload" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw=="></iframe></p><p>Ogletree’s last contract was for $42.75 million over four years. He signed it as an extension with the Rams, where he had his best seasons as a former first-round draft pick. The Giants traded fourth- and seventh-round picks for Ogletree in March 2018.</p><p>Ogletree has 173 tackles, six interceptions and two sacks in 26 games for the Giants but was a liability in pass coverage against running backs and tight ends.</p><p>The Jets have Avery Williamson, Neville Hewitt, Blake Cashman and Harvey Langi playing on the inside.</p>]]></content:encoded>
