Jordan Leggett

Jordan Leggett was a fifth round pick this year out of Clemson. Leggett had a productive four-year career for the Tigers, hauling in 112 passes for 1598 yards and 18 touchdowns.

Like Seferian-Jenkins, Leggett has great size (6’5″ 258 lb.) and combines that with good speed.

Leggett is more of a route runner than an inline blocker but he should be able to carve out a role in New York’s offense.

With nowhere to go but up in the tight end department, the Jets should be excited to see what this young kid can do.
