Roster News: Jets sign RB Guerriero, release DB Cioffi
The Jets are apparently conducting a walk-through at today's practice and one new face should be there:
The Jets are signing former Monmouth and Lyndhurst HS running back Pete Guerriero. He's expected to be at practice this morning. The undrafted free agent getting his chance close to home. https://t.co/W4Kck8qdKA

Guerriero, who was the leading rusher in the FCS last year, possesses sub-4.5 speed. The Jets will have to make a roster move to create room for Guerriero.
UPDATE: The Jets confirmed the signing and corresponding move:
We‘ve signed RB Pete Guerriero and waived S Anthony Cioffi.
