He was cut at the end of training camp, but was later re-signed by the team after injuries to the Cardinals receiving corps.[2] Holman played in three games with one start before being waived a second time, catching three passes for 41 yards.[3] In 1987, Holman was signed by the New York Jets in the off season but was originally cut during training camp.[4] He was re-signed by the Jets as a replacement player during the 1987 NFL players strike.[5][6] Holman had 15 receptions for 155 yards in three games and was released by the Jets when the strike ended.[3]
