JETS PICK UP SAFETY WORRELL

The Jets yesterday signed free agent safety Cameron Worrell, a five-year NFL veteran who spent the 2007 season with the Dolphins, playing in 12 games, making seven starts and 56 tackles.

Worrell originally entered the NFL with the Bears as an undrafted free agent in 2003, appearing in 46 games in four seasons for the Bears and recording 20 tackles, two sacks, and two fumble recoveries on defense along with 45 special teams tackles.

He also appeared in three postseason games in 2006, including Super Bowl XLI. In college, Worrell was a first-team All-WAC performer at safety at Fresno State.
