Jets’ injury nightmare just won’t go away

The Jets on Tuesday added two more names to their lengthy injured reserve list.

Rookie tackle Chuma Edoga and rookie wide receiver Jeff Smith were shut down for the season, becoming the latest Jets to have their year end due to injury. The Jets have 18 players on IR.

Edoga, a third-round pick out of USC, started eight games this season, playing both left and right tackle. He injured his knee against the Raiders last month and has been inactive for the last three games.

Smith, an undrafted free agent, made his season debut last week against the Ravens, coming up from the practice squad.
