The Jets shifted Hampton (Achilles) to injured reserve Wednesday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.
Hampton suffered a season-ending ruptured Achilles in last Sunday's loss to the Seahawks, so this news was expected. Hampton finishes the season having played just five special-teams snaps this season, all coming in last Sunday's contest.
Hampton suffered a ruptured Achilles on Sunday's 40-3 loss to the Seahawks, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Hampton signed with the Jets on Saturday and made his debut with the team Sunday. However, he suffered a season-ending injury after just five snaps. Hampton will be placed on IR in the near future.
