The Jets waived/injured Sheffield (undisclosed) on Wednesday, Eric Allen of the team's official site reports.
Sheffield signed with the Jets as an undrafted free agent in early May. The 25-year-old wide receiver out of Rutgers made it through most of training camp before sustaining an unknown injury. Sheffield will now be placed on waivers, and if he clears he will revert to the Jets' injured reserve list and spend the entirety of the 2026 regular season on IR unless he is waived with an injury settlement.
