Devin Funchess signed a one-year prove-it deal with the Colts but didn’t prove much in his short stay in Indianapolis after injuring his collarbone after one game.

For four seasons, Funchess was one of Cam Newton’s primary targets down in Carolina, but drops and effort were a legitimate concern from the former University of Michigan product. For his career, Funchess has 23 drops.

While the Jets may want to expand their horizons in the wide receiver market, Funchess presents himself as a low-risk, high-reward addition at wideout. He would give Sam Darnold a big-bodied receiver, standing at 6-foot-4, who can go make plays in the red zone.
