Up to six practice squad players can have more than two accrued seasons.
Teams can protect up to four practice squad players per week.
Two practice squad players can be elevated to the active roster on game days.

You can keep track of the Jets’ practice squad additions below. We’ll be updating this list as such moves are reported and announced.

Predicting the Jets’ 16-man practice squad

The Jets will have a 16-man practice squad filled out soon. Here is our crack at predicting the group.

The Jets began their roster purge on Monday afternoon, making multiple cuts to begin the process of trimming down from 80 to 53 players by Tuesday at 4 p.m.

Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh are going to have to make some excruciatingly tough decisions on Tuesday, but not all of the players they cut are necessarily done with the Jets. New York still has a 16-man practice squad to fill out and while some of its young talent isn’t ready to be part of the active roster, there is still a place for players to develop and potentially contribute down the road.

Here is Jets Wire’s crack at predicting which 16 players will land on the Jets’ practice squad, which will start to take shape Wednesday afternoon.

Jets claim CB Corey Ballentine off waivers from Giants

The Jets added some depth to their cornerback room Wednesday.

Gang Green announced that it claimed Corey Ballentine off waivers from the Giants. Ballentine played in nine games for Big Blue this season, but only started in two of them. He was the Giants’ second cornerback until he lost his job to Issac Yiadom. After that, he was mainly used on special teams by the Giants.

Ballantine has registered 16 total tackles this season. He also averaged 21.2 yards per kick return on nine tries for New York.

Ballentine was originally a sixth-round pick out of Washburn University in 2019. He played in 13 games in 2019 with two starts and recorded 26 total tackles, two pass defenses and one quarterback hit.

With the addition of Ballentine, the Jets now have a total of eight cornerbacks on the roster.

In other transaction news, the Jets re-signed quarterback Mike White to the practice squad.
