New York Jets safety Chuck Clark (ankle) has been placed on Injured Reserve on Tuesday. This news comes a day after Clark was forced to exit early during Monday's loss to the Buffalo Bills. Clark exited that game in the first half due to a high-ankle sprain. He will now be forced to miss the next four games after being placed on the IR. Ashtyn Davis stepped in at strong safety and played well in the absence of Clark. The expectation is that Davis will continue starting until Clark is ready to play again. Davis should be a viable option, but he is still a downgrade defensively over a stud like Clark.
New York Jets safety Chuck Clark (ankle) won't return to Monday's Week 6 contest against the Buffalo Bills. Clark suffered an ankle injury during the first half and the team has decided to hold him out for the rest of the night. He'll finish with night with four tackles and will hopefully be back on the field next week. Ashtyn Davis figures to replace him at strong safety for the rest of this game. The Jets are hopeful this is a minor injury because Clark is a huge part of this secondary.
The New York Jets are bringing back veteran safety Chuck Clark (knee) on a one-year deal, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Clark suffered a torn ACL during last year's organized team activities, causing him to miss the entire 2023 season. The 28-year-old was a sixth-round selection in the 2017 draft by the Baltimore Ravens, and he signed with New York ahead of the 2023 campaign. He has tallied 384 tackles, 3.5 sacks, five forced fumbles, and five interceptions in 96 career games. The Jets have one of the best secondaries in the NFL, and Clark's return helps in the depth department.
Further testing has confirmed that New York Jets safety Chuck Clark (knee) suffered a season-ending torn ACL during offseason practice earlier this month, according to sources. The Jets signed former Green Bay Packers safety Adrian Amos after Clark got hurt, and Amos will now likely step into a prominent role in New York's secondary with Clark set to miss all of the 2023 season. It's a blow to the Jets' secondary after they sent a seventh-round draft pick to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for Clark back in March after he recorded a career-high 101 tackles in 2022. The 28-year-old Clark will be a free agent next March.
The New York Jets believe safety Chuck Clark (knee) has suffered a serious knee injury, according to team and league sources. The Jets are waiting on an official ruling while Clark seeks a second opinion. With the possibility of Clark missing all of the 2023 season, the Jets signed former Green Bay Packers safety Adrian Amos on Tuesday, and he could settle into a big role this year if Clark is out. Clark was expected to start alongside Jordan Whitehead this offseason and was playing alongside him in recent practices. Now, Amos is expected to step in as the starter in New York's secondary after spending the last four years with the Packers. The Jets viewed Clark as an upgrade over Lamarcus Joyner, who they let walk in the offseason, so this injury is a big blow to their safety ranks heading into training camp.
The New York Jets are expected to acquire safety Chuck Clark from the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for late-round draft-pick compensation, according to sources. A starter for the Ravens since 2019, Clark will add veteran experience to an already strong Jets defense. The trade should become official when the new league year begins next week on March 15. ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting that the Jets will send a 2024 seventh-round pick to Baltimore. The 27-year-old Clark has played every defensive snap for the Ravens the last three years, and he finished last year with a career-high 101 tackles (61 solo), four passes defensed, one forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 17 starts.
