Jets sign DT Jaylen Twyman, place WR Malik Taylor on IR

The Jets signed defensive tackle Jaylen Twyman on Sunday, the team announced.

Twyman played for the UFL’s San Antonio Brahmas this spring.

The Jets placed receiver Malik Taylor on injured reserve in a corresponding move.

He appeared in three games with the Jets last season while on the practice squad, totaling two catches for 13 yards.
