The New York Jets claimed former Oakland Raiders tight end Clive Walford off waivers on Monday, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
The Jets were in need of a tight end after Austin Seferian-Jenkins signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars in free agency. Jenkins had 50 receptions for 357 yards and three touchdowns in 2017.
Before adding Walford, the only other tight ends on the Jets' roster were Eric Tomlinson, who had eight receptions for 121 yards and a touchdown in 2017, and Jordan Legget, who missed all of last season after suffering a knee injury in the preseason.
