On Tuesday, the New York Jets officially placed nose tackle Kris Jenkins on season-ending injured reserve and signed defensive tackles Howard Green and Antonio Garay to fill in the void left by Jenkins.
Jenkins tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee during New York’s 16-13 overtime loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. Regretful for not being able to play his second season with the Jets fully, Jenkins hopes that he would be ready to take part in the team’s offseason workout programs after having surgery, which is to be had in a few weeks.
Green should be glad to wear back his Jets jersey after the team released him last Saturday to make room on the active roster for wide receiver Danny Woodhead and now rely on him to help fill in for Jenkins along with Garay, a sixth-round draft pick of Cleveland in 2003 who has played with the Chicago Bears for the past three seasons.
