The PUP list is mostly reserved for players who are still recovering from injuries and are not yet ready to participate in practice. Players can be activated from it at any point.
The coaching staff will closely monitor their progress throughout training camp and hope for a timely recovery.
With the regular season still a few weeks away, the Jets have time to assess the situation and make necessary adjustments to their roster.
The Jets will be working hard to overcome these early setbacks and focus on maximizing the potential of the available players as they prepare for the upcoming season.
As the Jets navigates through training camp and prepares for the 2023 NFL season, fans and football enthusiasts will be closely following the progress of the injuries, hoping the players will be activated soon.
