Question FAA First officer do not require TR ???

Hi to all,
please correct me:

I was told that in USA, only captain needs a full Type rating. (theoretical + simulator), and that first officer doesn't really need a TR to fly the aircraft (that sounds weird..) or, at least, not a TR as extensive as the commander one....

Since it's a mouth to mouth sentence i heard... it might have been modified, but i'm curious to what exactly did it originally refer to ??
Is it true or was it true or do you have any idea to what was meant originally ??

Thank you
