Josh Reynolds Battling for Jets’ No. 2 Receiver Spot After Tumultuous Season

At 30, he draws on familiarity with Aaron Glenn and Tanner Engstrand to adapt quickly to the Jets’ offense.

Overview

  • The Jets signed Reynolds to a one-year contract worth up to $5 million three weeks after releasing him in March.
  • He is practicing with Allen Lazard, Tyler Johnson, Xavier Gipson, Malachi Corley and Arian Smith for snaps behind No. 1 receiver Garrett Wilson.
  • Reynolds returned to the field this spring after recovering from a broken finger and minor gunshot wounds last October.
  • The former Lions fourth-round pick views his veteran status as a guiding presence for a largely youthful roster.
  • He said he feels “blessed” for the opportunity in New York and is focused on daily improvement to help the team win.
