The New York Jets have placed wide receiver Jeff Smith on injured reserve and the speedster will be eligible to return in three weeks.
Smith was getting a look with the first team offense for an injury depleted wide receiver corps before injuring his shoulder while attempting a diving catch. Jeff Smith will join Vyncint Smith on the shelf as the Jets look to piece together a healthy group of receivers with the season now less than a week away.
