In dire need of depth at the wide receiver position due to an injured Ardarius Stewart and a suspended Jeremy Kerley, the Jets have elevated receiver/return man JoJo Natson from their practice squad to the 53-man roster ahead of their Sunday afternoon meeting with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
A diminutive player at just 5′ 7”, Natson was added to the Jets practice squad after being let go by the Indianapolis Colts where he impressed in the pre-season, leading the Colts with 13 receptions. The Akron product looked to be a lock to make the Colts’ roster before fumbling three times in one game to end the pre-season.
