New York Jets select Florida St. DB Hamsah Nasirildeen with 186th overall pick

Spending their fourth consecutive draft pick on defense, the New York Jets added yet another versatile defender on Day 3 as they used the 186th overall selection on Florida State defensive back Hamsah Nasirildeen.

Entering the NFL after his true senior seen, the Concord, North Carolina native is listed as a safety, but at 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds with plenty of experience all over the field, he has the potential to play a variety of different roles.

An ACL injury suffered in the 2019 season limited Nasirildeen to only two games in 2020 as he returned late in the season.
