  • Jets' Braiden McGregor: Placed on injured reserve

    McGregor (pectoral) was placed on the Jets' injured reserve list Wednesday, Eric Allen of the team's official site reports.

    McGregor will miss the rest of the 2026 season due to a pectoral injury he sustained during the Jets' Week 4 loss to the Bears. His move to IR opens up a spot on the 53-man roster, which the Jets filled with Nate Lynn, who signed with the team's practice squad following the conclusion of training camp in late August.

  • Jets' Braiden McGregor: Suffers season-ending pectoral injury

    McGregor (pectoral) suffered a season-ending injury during Sunday's loss to the Bears, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    McGregor will soon be moved to IR, where he will remain for the remainder of the 2026 season. The defensive end played in all four games to start the season, logging seven tackles (two solo) over 42 defensive snaps and 46 special-teams snaps.

  • Jets' Braiden McGregor: Injures chest in Week 4

    McGregor exited Sunday's game against the Bears with a chest injury and did not return.

  • Jets' Braiden McGregor: On track to play Sunday

    McGregor (shoulder) was not listed on the Jets' injury report Wednesday.

    McGregor was sidelined in Week 11 at New England due to a shoulder injury, but it looks like he's now back to 100 percent to begin the Jets' new week of preparation. He figures to be back in a rotational role on the edge against a run-heavy Baltimore offense in Week 12.

  • Jets' Braiden McGregor: Inactive for Week 11

    McGregor (shoulder) is inactive for Thursday's game against New England.

    A shoulder injury limited the second-year pro's practice participation during Week 11 prep, and he wasn't able to get clearance from medical staff to play Thursday after going through pregame warmups. Micheal Clemons and Tyler Baron are poised to see a slight increase in rotational defensive snaps in McGregor's absence.

  • Jets' Braiden McGregor: Past ankle issue

    McGregor (ankle) was not listed on the Jets' injury report Wednesday.

    McGregor was unable to play in the Jets' Week 17 blowout loss to the Bills due to an ankle injury. His absence from Wednesday's injury report suggests that he has progressed in his recovery enough to be available for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Dolphins.

  • Jets' Braiden McGregor: Won't play against Buffalo

    McGregor (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bills.

    McGregor registered a DNP/LP/FP practice log this week due to an ankle injury, but he hasn't progressed enough in his recovery to be cleared to play Sunday. Micheal Clemons and Eric Watts will be the Jets' two rotational defensive ends behind starters Haason Reddick and Will McDonald due to McGregor's injury. McGregor's next chance to play will be in the Jets' regular-season finale against the Dolphins next weekend.
