Tyron Smith

Jets interim coach Jeff Ulbrich said injured reserve is now a “stronger consideration” for Tyron Smith (neck).

Smith’s neck isn’t improving at the rate the Jets had hoped. It would not at all be surprising if the Jets placed the veteran on IR considering their lack of anything to play for this year, they might as well see what Olu Fashanu can be at left tackle. So far, so good on that front, as the rookie has played better at his natural position against the Cardinals and Colts in New York’s last two games.
