Jets Free Agent Signings

Jets waive Kowalewski, sign undrafted free agents

Admin - April 29, 2008

Following the selection of TE Dustin Keller in last weekend's NFL Draft, the New York Jets waived TE Joe Kowalewski who played in 13 games last season and caught 5 passes for 18 yards, including 1 touchdown. Kowalewski clearly has become expandable as the Gang Green now have three decent tight ends on their roster: last year's starter Chris Baker, free agent acquisition Bubba Franks and Dustin Keller.

The Jets also signed a few undrafted free agents:

S Nate Lyles from the University of Virginia received a 3-year contract with a $2,000 signing bonus.
CB Alfred Phillips from Wagner University
RB Danny Woodhead from Chadron State

Additionally, the team waived RB Stacey Tutt who played in 9 games last season.
