Former Syracuse wide receiver Jarrod West will attend New York Jets rookie minicamp this weekend, per Syracuse.com. West will also attend Tennessee Titans rookie minicamp on the weekend of May 16 if he isn’t signed by then, his agent told Syracuse.com. West wasn’t selected in the NFL Draft, which concluded on Saturday.

West will join former SU safety Durell Eskridge, who signed with the Jets on Saturday night.

West didn’t record a receiving touchdown in his senior season at SU, but had 285 more receiving yards than the second-highest total on the team. His long of 51 yards was the highest of any receiver on the season, as he served as a primary deep threat.

West was a long shot to be drafted, as CBS Sports ranked him as the No. 93 wide receiver in the draft and the 696th overall prospect. The site didn’t even project West to be picked up in free agency after the draft concluded.

Syracuse did not have a single former player drafted this year for the first time since 2008 and second time since 1975, but seven others, outside of West, have latched on to NFL teams since the draft ended. Here is a list of what teams those players will join:

Darius Kelly – safety – Buffalo Bills

Durell Eskridge – safety – New York Jets

Cameron Lynch – linebacker – St. Louis Rams

Dyshawn Davis – linebacker – Washington Redskins

Sean Hickey – offensive tackle – New Orleans Saints

Eric Crume – defensive tackle – Jacksonville Jaguars

Brandon Reddish – cornerback – Oakland Raiders
