Notes from Thursday’s practice leading into Falcons week

A few notes from a light practice Thursday.

Duane Brown changes number, prepares for first team drills

New Jets left tackle Duane Brown worked on the side earlier in the week and continued to do so Thursday, but also started working in positional drills. It is possible Brown will take some team reps during this weekend’s joint practices with the Falcons.

He also changed his number already in such a short time with the Jets. After initially taking No. 68, Brown will now wear No. 71. Nate Herbig, who was wearing No. 71, is now wearing No. 68.
