The Jets have signed 25-year old CB/KR Justin Miller.  Miller played in 1 game this season for the Raiders in which he returned 6 kickoffs for 106 yards (17.7 avg).  With Leon Washington out for the season the Jets signed Miller to replace him on kickoff returns and to provide a little depth at CB.  Miller has played in 43 games in his five year NFL career and he has returned 147 kickoffs for 3,851 yards (26.2 avg) with 5 TDs.  He has also returned 6 punts for 9 yards (1.5 avg) but that is definately not his strength.  Miller does not have a lot of experience on defense as he has 99 tackles, 1 forced fumble and he has defensed 8 passes.  This was a smart move for the Jets as Leon Washington is a very hard player to replace but Miller should do a good job on kickoff returns.
