The Jets have signed wide receiver Jehu Chesson to a reserve/future contract.

Chesson spent 2019 on the Redskins' practice squad. The Michigan product was originally selected by the Chiefs in the fourth round of the 2017 NFL Draft. He spent one year with Kansas City and finished his rookie season with 18 yards on 2 receptions. Chesson then joined the Redskins after the Chiefs waived him and had 1 catch for 7 yards in 2018. The 6'2", 204-pounder has returned three kicks for 65 yards (21.7 average).
