Roster News: Jets to sign DB Riley

The Jets are reportedly adding some safety depth after the loss of Marcus Maye:

The Jets are signing DB Elijah Riley off of the Eagles practice squad, a league source said.

Riley is from Long Island and attended Army. #Jets need bodies in the back end after losing Marcus Maye for the seasons.

Riley is 23 and was undrafted out of Army last season. He has played in six NFL games but has only been on the field for four defensive snaps and hasn't recorded any statistics yet.

We'll bring you an in-depth scouting report on Riley next week.
