Every year, over 250 players enter the professional ranks of the NFL, as they are selected by their new teams. However, if a player is not among those picked, it does not mean their football careers are over.

In fact, it means that they are still fighting to achieve their NFL dreams.

The NY Jets, like every team, scrambled to land the top undrafted free agents following the 2021 NFL Draft. New York once again proved to be aggressive, landing numerous players that were once regarded as draftable players.

General manager Joe Douglas and head coach Robert Saleh are looking to build a winning culture in Florham Park. Coming off of a 2-14 season, almost every player is going to be on the block, competing to make the team.

Luckily, this could prove beneficial for these undrafted free agents.

The Jets have always proven that the most fiery of competitors have a chance to make the team. Off the bat, take a look at now Carolina Panthers star receiver Robby Anderson. The lanky Temple product impressed the Jets during training camp and fought his way onto the roster.

Similarly, current players on the Jets like Kyle Phillips and Bryce Huff had to show their passion for the game while competing to make the team. To Douglas and Saleh, this is the type of player they want on their team in 2021.  

That being said, who out of the NY Jets' undrafted free agent crop can make the 53-man roster? Let’s take a look.
