Man Accused Of Robbing NFL Player In Morristown Pleads Not Guilty: Report

Noah Shaffer, 26, of Paterson, pleaded not guilty Monday in connection with the armed robbery of a New York Jets player outside a Morristown home in February 2025. Prosecutors say four masked gunmen followed the player from New York City and stole a $10,000 watch, a wallet, and cash at gunpoint before fleeing in a stolen-plate Volkswagen. The Morris County prosecutor’s office has floated a seven-year prison offer tied to a conspiracy count, and Shaffer is due back in court next month.
