At least he is essentially a rookie and not some guy that has been round the block and failed numerous times, no doubt he is just going to be a camp arm but it at least gives him a window to show himself in a good light if he takes the chance, same still counts for Webb as well tbh.

Silvers last played for the Memphis Express of the AAF and threw for 777 yards, four touchdowns and one interception in three starts. In four years at Troy University, the 6’3”, 219-pounder completed 64.4% of his passes while throwing for 10,677 yards (second in school history), 71 touchdowns and 29 interceptions. A former three-star recruit, Silvers was a four-year starter for the Trojans and was named to the Sun Belt Conference All-Newcomer Team as a freshman after completing 70.5% of his passes, breaking Sam Bradford’s NCAA record for best completion percentage for a freshman quarterback. Silvers was an all-conference honorable mention as a sophomore and earned first-team all-Sun Belt honors as a junior.
So the Jets are signing a guy who started the season as Hackenberg's backup? Poor Hackenberg, the hits just keep comin'.
