Impact Davis joined New York's practice squad in November, but the 6-foot-8 tight end remains without a regular-season appearance. He's well-traveled, having served stints with the St. Louis BattleHawks of the XFL and the Birmingham Iron of the AAF before his time with Gang Green.

Signs with Gang Green The Jets signed Davis to the practice squad Tuesday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.

Impact The Jets are apparently seeking depth at tight end after placing Trevon Wesco (ankle) on injured reserve last week, and Davis will get a chance to prove himself on the practice squad. The 6-foot-8, 280-pound tight end played for the St. Louis Battlehawks of the XFL last spring but never caught a pass. He has experience at offensive tackle and defensive end, too, making him a versatile player that the Jets hope to develop.

Inks deal with Jets Davis signed with the Jets on Saturday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.

Impact Davis last played with the St. Louis Battlehawks of the XFL, but he never made a reception. He's a bit of a Swiss Army Knife dating back to his collegiate days at Stony Brook University -- where he caught six passes for 41 yards through his entire career -- because, in addition to tight end, he filled in at offensive tackle and defensive end. Davis is likely just a training camp placeholder while Ryan Griffin (ankle) and Daniel Brown (undisclosed) recover from injuries.
