The New York Jets placed a lot of faith in tight end, Jordan Leggett, this offseason when they made no significant addition to the position in free agency. The team didn’t even bring back Austin Seferian-Jenkins, and apparently was never too interested in re-signing him.
The team entered camp with several tight ends, but the two that stuck out were Leggett and fourth-round pick Chris Herndon, who was recently arrested for driving while intoxicated per Rich Cimini of ESPN.
Leggett has a huge opportunity entering his de facto rookie season (he missed all of last year with an injured knee).
