Florham Park, NJ (SportsNetwork.com) – The New York Jets added cornerback Dimitri Patterson Tuesday during a busy day for the team in free agency.<\/p>\n
The move came a few hours after the Jets agreed to terms with former Raiders wide receiver\/return specialist Jacoby Ford.<\/p>\n
In Patterson, New York gets an experienced defender who has started 20 games with three different teams (Philadelphia, Cleveland, Miami) over the past four seasons. The 30-year-old was limited to just six games with the Dolphins in 2013 due to injuries, but still recorded four interceptions along with six pass breakups and 19 tackles.<\/p>\n
Patterson joins former first-round picks Dee Milliner and Kyle Wilson at the cornerback position for the Jets, who released three-time Pro Bowl honoree Antonio Cromartie last month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
