The New York Jets finally got lucky. They claimed Dallas Cowboys receiver Lucky Whitehead off of waivers on Wednesday.
The Cowboys had placed Whitehead on waivers after news broke that he had been charged with shoplifting in West Virginia in June. Whitehead said that he was innocent and the Prince William County Police department confirmed on Wednesday that he is innocent. The man who was arrested didn’t have identification but provided to police the name, date of birth, and social security number of Rodney Darnell Whitehead Jr., according to ESPN.
