The Jets activated Ashtyn Davis off the physically unable to perform (PUP) list on Monday.
The second-year safety was recovering from a lingering foot injury that he sustained late in the 2020 season. The injury forced Davis to miss spring workouts, training camp and the preseason.
Robert Saleh previously said that the Cal product was targeting a Week 2 return. The Jets head coach is now taking things “day by day” with Davis as the regular season nears. Davis will ramp up football activities in the coming days and weeks.
Davis, a third-round pick in 2020, played in 10 games (6 starts) as a rookie. He recorded 36 tackles, one fumble recovery, and one defended pass. He figures to be a backup behind Marcus Maye and Lamarcus Joyner once ready to go.
