New York Jets cornerback D.J. Reed was ruled out Friday with a concussion, meaning the Jets will face the Denver Broncos Sunday at Empower Field without two of their top four corners.
Previously, dime back Brandin Echols (hamstring) was declared out for the game, forcing coach Robert Saleh to juggle his secondary in what looms as a huge game for the Jets (1-3), who have dropped three in a row.
Seldom-used corner Bryce Hall, a 2020 draft pick who actually started 24 games in his first two seasons, suddenly becomes a key piece.
