DALLAS – With the departure of Austin Seferian Jenkins this off-season, adding depth at the tight end position was a priority.

Andy Slater of WINZ Radio in Miami is reporting that the felony charges against Jets WR Robby Anderson stemming from a traffic incident in Sunrise Florida in January have been dropped. Anderson will still face misdemeanor reckless driving charges but obviously these are much less severe than what he previously faced. SLATER SCOOP: Felony charges…
