Roster News: Jets sign CB Rivers, waive Keeton
While practice was going on, the Jets announced a roster move.
We have waived/injured CB Bryson Keeton and signed CB David Rivers.

Rivers is a 6'1" 186 pound undrafted rookie from Youngstown State. He was signed by the Packers after the draft, but they released him in June.
Keeton, who played on special teams in the season finale last year, has been waived/injured. He will revert to injured reserve once he has cleared waivers.
We'll share a full scouting report on Rivers in due course.
