Jets Sign Safety Sharrod Neasman, Place Parker Ferguson on IR

The Jets have confirmed the signing of free agent safety Sharrod Neasman, formerly of the Atlanta Falcons after placing undrafted rookie free agent offensive lineman Parker Ferguson on injured reserve.

Coming from Atlanta, Neasman will have some familiarity with defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich who was also with the Falcons from 2015-2020 before joining Robert Saleh with the Jets.

In five pro seasons, Neasman has started just two contests and will likely be more of a special teams candidate with the Jets. In 57 career games, Neasman has logged 80 tackles (56 solo) and 4 passes defended.
