Final cut-down day in the NFL is a double-edged sword as players’ dreams are either fulfilled or put on hold. As of late Monday afternoon, 12 Jets rookies had reason to celebrate as their names all were part of the 53-man roster.
Wideout Robby Anderson, one of three undrafted free agents to earn a spot, didn’t want to hear from the Jets over the weekend.
“I joked with my agent because on draft day you’re dying for that phone call, and the day of final cuts, you don’t want your phone to ring,” he said.
