The 26-year-old Copeland is expected to serve as a backup on defense and be a key part of the Jets’ special teams unit.
”Too many different levels of excitement to put into words Carlton Fisk Jersey ,” Copeland told the Jets’ website. ”Coming off of injured reserve, having to sit every Sunday Authentic Tarvarius Moore Jersey , Monday and Thursday and watching other people play, I’m first and foremost excited to get back to the game that I love.”
He signed with Baltimore as an undrafted free agent out of Penn in 2013 and spent time later that season on Tennessee’s practice squad. After signing with Orlando of the Arena Football League in 2015 Authentic Vita Vea Jersey , Copeland impressed Detroit after participating in the NFL Veterans Combine. His grandfather, Roy Hilton Authentic Su'a Cravens Jersey , played for the Baltimore Colts against the Jets in the Super Bowl in 1969.
”He played defensive end against Joe Namath and all those guys,” Copeland said. ”I know he’s going to be very proud of his grandson and now my job is to continue to make him proud.”
Cooper was not tendered as a restricted free agent C.C. Sabathia Jersey , but was brought back to serve as a rotational defensive lineman. He had 16 tackles and one sack in eight games, and his play increased when Muhammad Wilkerson was benched at the end of last season.
Cooper was a third-round pick by Cleveland out of Washington State in 2015. He has also spent time with San Francisco Authentic B.J. Hill Jersey , and has 56 career tackles and three sacks.
