Free agent TE Matthew Mulligan will visit the Rams and 49ers.

A blocking specialist, Mulligan played 40 percent of the Jets' offensive snaps last season, but caught just five passes for 58 yards. He won't be offered a role as a pass catcher on the open market.

The Jets have reportedly decided against extending a qualifying offer to restricted free agent TE Matthew Mulligan.

Mulligan played roughly 40 percent of the offensive snaps, earning derision for too many penalties. The tender would have cost the Jets $1.3 million, a figure they are unwilling to pay for a backup blocking specialist. Mulligan could be brought back at a lower salary down the road.
