Gang Green is searching for linebacker depth after placing Dylan Donahue — a key special teamer — on injured reserve earlier this week. While the Jets plucked Obum Gwacham from the Cardinals’ practice squad, and added Freddie Bishop to their practice squad, the club is still hunting for more options behind starters Demario Davis and Darron Lee.
Maggitt, 24, signed with the Colts as an undrafted free agent out of Tennessee in 2016. After making Indianapolis’ 53-man roster, Maggitt appeared in nine games and posted four tackles while playing on 124 defensive snaps and 129 special teams snaps. He struggled with injuries, however, and a knee injury ultimately landed him on injured reserve in December. Maggitt was subsequently cut in May.
