Jets Week 13 Inactive List vs Falcons; Becton, Schweitzer Return for Struggling O-Line
Syndication USA TODAY - JetNation.com - New York Jets Blog & ForumWith the team’s playoff hopes hanging in the balance, and one more loss mathematically eliminating them for the 13th straight season, the 4-7 New York Jets have reinforcements returning to play. The largest, and most exciting, injury news came earlier this week, when head coach Robert Saleh announced that QB Aaron Rodgers (left Achilles) returned to practice on a limited basis, opening up his 21-day window to return from Injured Reserve. The team now has untill December 24th to activate him, and the expectation is that he will be ready prior to that date. Will he start a game again for the Jets in 2023? Time will tell, but having him out there at practice is a morale boost at a minimum. Elsewhere offensively, OL Wes Schweitzer (calf) was activated off IR and looks to be in line to start at right guard. To make room for Schweitzer, Xavier Newman was released. Jake Hanson was once again elevated from the practice squad. After his one game benching, WR Allen Lazard is back in the lineup, hoping to build on his existing chemistry with Tim Boyle.
