The New York Jets reportedly have found a new tight end.
On Monday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reported the AFC East team signed Ryan Griffin. Garafolo suggested Griffin can compete for immediate playing time seeing as how tight end Chris Herndon is suspended for the season's opening four games.
Griffin played each of his first six seasons on the Houston Texans, but they released him after he was arrested in April for allegedly breaking a hotel window. James Palmer of NFL Network noted charges of vandalism and public intoxication were eventually dismissed.
