The New York Jets have announced the acquisition of rookie tight end Matt Lacosse after waiving defensive lineman Davon Walls, another undrafted free agent.

Walls was one of the Jets top priorities after the draft as he was one of the few players to receive a signing bonus from Gang Green.

Walls has played sparingly through the first two preseason games of the 2015 season and has had little impact.

Lacosse, who was let go by the Giants due to a hamstring injury is a 6′ 6”, 240 lb University of Illinois product who finished his four-year career with 38 receptions for 396 yards and six touchdowns.

With the addition of Lacosse, the Jets are currently carrying six tight ends and H-back Jace Amaro.
