Wide receiver David Nelson agreed to a contract with the New York Jets, his third AFC East team in the past seven months.
Santonio Holmes could miss two games with a hamstring injury and Stephen Hill must pass concussion tests to suit up, leading the Jets to look for veteran help at the position.
Nelson was re-signed by the Buffalo Bills in 2013. He suffered a torn ACL in the 2012 regular-season opener and signed with the New England Patriots in the offseason. He didn’t stick on the roster and spent part of the preseason with the Cleveland Browns.
Nelson caught 61 passes in 2011 and 31 in 2010 with the Bills.
