Shortly after acquiring him from the Giants, the Jets waived guard Mike Fladell.

A day after claiming Mike Fladell, the Jets waived the guard after he failed his physical. The announcement was made by Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum.

Fladell, a 6'7", 334-pounder who attended Rutgers University, entered the NFL when he was signed to the Giants practice squad on Dec. 3, 2008, as an undrafted rookie free agent. The Howard Beach, N.Y., native was subsequently waived on June 24. 

Tough break for Fladell. Considering the lack of depth on the line, this might have been his best shot at making a roster.
