Ahmad Gooden: Seeking new opportunity
The Jets waived Gooden (illness) on Saturday, per the NFL's official transaction report.
After activating Gooden from the reserve/COVID-19 list, the team immediately placed him on waivers. This is slightly surprising because the Jets don't have intriguing depth at linebacker. The 24-year-old has nearly a month to find a new team before Week 1.

Ahmad Gooden: Waived Saturday
Gooden (illness) was waived by the Jets on Saturday.
It's a bit surprising to see Gooden waived considering the linebacker was expected to be a critical piece of the team's rotation. Complicating matters further is Gooden's placement on the reserve/COVID-19 list, which means the 24-year-old either has or has been near someone who has COVID-19. That designation might not be cleared until he eventually joins another team, but who will pick him up remains to be seen.

Jets' Ahmad Gooden: Placed on COVID-19 list
Gooden was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Gooden, who signed a two-year contract with the Jets late last season, is still expected to be a critical rotational piece for the team's linebacker unit. To do so, Gooden must first pass NFL protocol pertaining COVID-19 first. The reserve/COVID-19 list indicates Gooden either tested positive for COVID-19 or came in contact with someone who did, with the distinction likely dictating the length of his training-camp absence.

Broncos' Ahmad Gooden: Promoted from practice squad
The Broncos have signed Gooden to their 53-man roster, Ben Swanson of the team's official website reports.
With Justin Hollins (hamstring) sidelined, Gooden was added to the active roster in order to boost the team's pass-rushing depth. He is also expected to contribute on special teams. After spending the entire season on the practice squad, Sunday could be his first real game action this year.
