The Jets announced on Wednesday that they signed OL Ryan Crozier to the practice squad.
Crozier signed with the Denver Broncos as an undrafted free agent out of Connecticut following the 2019 NFL draft. He was waived with an injury designation following the preseason and eventually released with a settlement.
As a redshirt senior at UConn, Crozier started all 12 games at center for the Huskies. He helped the Huskies produce a pair of 1,000-yard rushers.
Crozier, 24, previously worked out for the Jets in October. He has never appeared in a regular-season NFL game. He will help add depth to the center position now that Ryan Kalil is on injured reserve and Jonotthan Harrison is starting at center.
Here is an updated look at New York’s practice squad:
