Jets Trying Out Five Players

The New York Jets are bringing in five free agents for tryouts during their minicamp this weekend, according to Brian Costello.

The full list includes:

1. WR Damion Willis
2. WR Trevor Davis
3. WR Steven Mitchell
4. TE Daniel Crawford
5. DL Mustafa Johnson

Davis, 27, was drafted in the fifth round by the Packers in the 2016 draft. Davis played three seasons with the Packers before Green Bay traded him to the Raiders in September of 2019 for a sixth-round pick.

The Dolphins claimed Davis off of waivers from the Raiders in December of 2019. Davis signed with the Bears as a free agent in 2020, but Chicago released him before the season began.

Washington then signed Davis to the team’s practice squad in October before releasing him this week. 

In 2020, Davis did not play in a game for Washington.

Mitchell, 27, wound up signing on with the Rams as an undrafted free agent out of USC back in 2018. He agreed to a three-year, $1.71 million contract but was waived coming out of the preseason.

Mitchell was later signed to the Rams’ practice squad before being released and later signing on with the Texans. He was on and off of the Texans’ roster, but was cut loose last month.  

In 2020, Mitchell appeared in six games for the Texans and caught five passes for 60 yards receiving and no touchdowns.
