Hodges was cut by the Jets on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The move was made in order to free up a roster spot for center Ryan Kalil. It's possible Hodges could catch on with another team during the preseason, but he'd need to make a significant impression on the coaching staff to avoid falling on the practice squad for a third consecutive season.

Hodges signed a contract with the Jets on Wednesday, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hodges, who's shed his former "Bucky" nickname, spent last season on the Steelers' practice squad. Pittsburgh cut him loose just before the 2019 NFL Draft. The 2017 sixth-round pick will now work to stick with the Jets, who are in need of tight end depth with starter Chris Herndon facing a four-game suspension.

Hodges was waived by the Steelers on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Hodges spent the 2018 season on the Steelers' practice squad and re-upped on a reserve/future contract in January, but he's now being let go just hours before the start of the 2019 NFL Draft. The 2017 sixth-rounder will presumably try and mix in with the incoming class of undrafted free agents as teams try to fill out their 90-man rosters ahead of training camp.
