The team also added defensive lineman Corbin Kaufusi, who is the brother of Jets defensive lineman Bronson Kaufusi. The move was made possible when the Baltimore Ravens poached safety Bennett Jackson.

The #Jets signed DL Corbin Kaufusi to the practice squad, meaning they have two Kaufusis on the PS — brothers Corbin and Bronson. Corbin is 6-9, Bronson is 6-6. They had an opening because S Bennett Jackson signed with the Ravens.
