The Facts:
Josh Cribbs is getting a chance to continue his career and give the New York Jets a boost on special teams and at wide receiver. New York also signed wide receiver Greg Salas from Philadelphia's practice squad, and placed wide receiver Clyde Gates and running back Mike Goodson on season-ending injured reserve.

Cribbs, the three-time Pro Bowl selection was cut by Oakland in the preseason after having offseason surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee. The Jets had shown interest in Cribbs during the last several months, working him out twice before signing him Tuesday. Cribbs, 30, is tied with New England's Leon Washington for the most kickoff-return touchdowns in NFL history with eight, and has returned three punts for scores. He spent his first eight NFL seasons with Cleveland. Salas was a fourth-round pick of St. Louis out of Hawaii in 2011, and had 27 catches for 264 yards as a rookie. He was traded to New England before last season, but was later claimed off waivers by Philadelphia. Salas had yet to play this season for the Eagles.
