Jets add Undrafted Receiver Johathon Rumph

The Jets today announced the signing of undrafted rookie free agent wide receiver Jonathon Rumph who will fill the roster spot vacated by the recently released Matt Simms.

Rumph, a South Carolina native who transferred to the University of Georgia following two seasons at the JUCO level with Holmes Community College, had a difficult time staying on the field due to recurring hamstring injuries.

Despite his durability concerns, Rumph’s physical attributes make him worth a look as a camp body at the very least.
