The Jets will not tender wide receiver Jeff Smith, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. He was set to become a restricted free agent but with the Jets not offering a tender, he will become an unrestricted free agent.
The #Jets aren't tendering RFA WR Jeff Smith, per source. Speedy fourth-year receiver (and onetime Boston College QB) has 34 career catches and now can sign with any team.
