Fined $100K During Jets Training Camp

Polite, an edge rusher out of the University of Florida, was considered a potential first round pick at the conclusion of the college football season, even getting mocked to the Seahawks by Mel Kiper.

However, a poor performance at the combine saw him fall to the Jets in the third round, and an ugly performance in training camp and the preseason, marred by attendance issues at practice, lead to him getting released before the season started. (He was fined a total of $100K by the Jets during training camp.)

Seattle snapped him up on the practice squad, but evidently they felt his presence was no longer needed.

[seahawkswire.usatoday.com]

The talented pass-rusher, who racked up more than $100,000 in Jets fines before being cut just months after being drafted, was released from the Seahawks’ practice squad Monday after a three-week stint.

It’s unclear what led to Polite’s release, as practice squad players are axed all the time without fanfare.

But Polite’s fall from potential first-round pick last fall to unemployed in Week 4 of his rookie season is astonishing.
