Ian Rapoport is reporting that the Jets have hosted one of their former receivers in Kenbrell Thompkins who has not played a down in the NFL since the team’s week 17 loss at Buffalo two years ago.

Having recently placed wide receiver Devin Smith on injured reserve after waiving him, the team is apparently keeping all options open to fill out their roster with training camp just a couple of months away.
