Tyron Smith Headed to IR, Xavier Newman Activated

Quite possibly bringing an end to a Hall of Fame career, the Jets have place offensive tackle Tyron Smith on injured reserve.  This, according to multiple sources.

Smith signed with the Jets this offseason and as was the case with so many moves, it failed spectacularly.  Smith was nowhere near the player the Jets thought they were getting as he gave up more sacks through 9-plus games this year than he did in all of 2023.

With Smith heading to IR, offensive lineman Xavier Newman has been activated and will give the Jets some depth along the interior O-line.

Running back Kene Nwangwu was also elevated from the practice squad ahead of tomorrow’s meeting with the Seahawks.
