Mecole Hardman, the former Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver, has signed with the New York Jets. After missing the majority of last season due to injury, Hardman was let go by the Chiefs, and he now finds himself in New York.

The Jets are still pursuing Aaron Rodgers, and once he arrives, the Green Bay Packers quarterback will have the opportunity to work with a great receiving core. The Jets have already signed Allen Lazard to a three-year deal, and adding Hardman will enable them to run effective trick plays when required.
