Roster News: Jets add G Saffold to practice squad
The Jets may not have made any trade deadline deals but they have brought in some emergency depth:
An OL move in NY: Jets bolstered their offensive line, signing two-time Pro-Bowl guard Rodger Saffold III to their practice squad with the intent to promote him to their active roster, per source. Saffold last played with Buffalo in 2022.

Saffold played in current Jets offensive line coach Keith Carter's scheme a few years ago, so he should have some idea what he's doing. Whether or not he's in game shape having been out of the game since the end of last season remains to be seen.
Before you ask, no, he doesn't play center.
