Former Clemson TE placed on IR |
The New York Jets have announced Tuesday that the team has placed rookie tight end

He was drafted by New York in the fifth round (#150 Overall) of the 2017 NFL Draft. He is a two-time Mackey Award finalist and finished his career with 112 receptions for 1,598 yards and 18 touchdowns in 2,372 snaps over 51 games (38 starts). Leggett also completed his Clemson’s career the leader in receptions, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns by a tight end. In 2016, Leggett was second-team All-American by AFCA and CBS Sports and produced 46 receptions for 736 yards and seven touchdowns in 954 snaps in 15 games (15 starts).
