Jets injury list continues to grow

Over the last week, the Jets have been dealing with a number of injuries at training camp. Early in this week, several more players suffered injuries.

Of these, the one that has me a tad concerned is Mason Taylor. Taylor, of course, was the Jets’ second round pick and working to earn a spot in the starting lineup. More than anything, the Jets need to develop him quickly, which means getting him plenty of reps.

Back injuries can be scary things, but hopefully McDonald is healed and back in the lineup soon. The good news is the regular season opener remains a long way off so there is plenty of time to recover.

Cowart figures to be a big part of the Jets’ rotation at defensive tackle. Taylor will serve as the backup quarterback behind Justin Fields, while Thomas is a developmental backup cornerback. He won’t play a big role for the Jets in 2025 barring injuries, but preseason reps could be valuable for him so hopefully he is back soon.
