The Jets filled out their 16-man practice squad Thursday with the addition of six players on top of the 10 they announced on Wednesday.
Practice squad players can be elevated up to three times during the season. If a team wants to bring up a player after those three call-ups, they have to sign that player to the active roster.
Teams may also select four players to be protected each week from being signed to another team’s active roster. Teams can pluck players from another team’s practice squad but would then count against the 53 for three weeks, even if he is released before then.
With that in mind, here are the 16 players currently on the Jets practice squad.
- QB Tim Boyle
- CB Craig James
- LB Sam Eguavoen
- S Tyreque Jones
- RB Xazavian Valladay

- DL Marquiss Spencer
- LB Caleb Johnson
- S Trey Dean
- CB Nehemiah Shelton
- LB Marcelino McCrary-Ball
- DL Jalyn Holmes
