Jets' Jermaine Johnson: Officially placed on IR
The Jets placed Johnson (Achilles) on injured reserve Thursday.
Johnson is done for the year after suffering a torn right Achilles' tendon in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans, so his placement on IR doesn't come as a surprise. The standout defensive end's injury takes on particular severity for New York due to edge rusher Haason Reddick's ongoing holdout, but for the time being, Will McDonald and Micheal Clemons appear primed to start at defensive end Thursday versus the Patriots. Johnson will turn his full attention toward making a recovery for the 2025 season.

Jets' Jermaine Johnson: Torn Achilles confirmed
Johnson confirmed Monday via a post on his personal Instagram account that he suffered a torn right Achilles' tendon in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
The news was expected but is still a blow for Johnson and the Jets defense, especially with edge rusher Haason Reddick in the midst of a holdout. With Johnson out for the season and no obvious end in sight for Reddick's holdout, Will McDonald and Micheal Clemons will likely serve as the Jets' starting defensive ends beginning with Thursday's game against the Patriots. Johnson will likely be placed on injured reserve in the coming days and will presumably undergo surgery in the near future.

Jets' Jermaine Johnson: Feared to have torn Achilles
Jets head coach Robert Saleh said that Johnson likely tore his right Achilles' tendon during Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Johnson went down with a non-contact injury in the third quarter, and after being checked out extensively by trainers, he was carted off the field. He will undergo additional tests, but if the torn Achilles' tendon is confirmed, Johnson will require season-ending surgery. Johnson's injury takes on greater importance to the Jets' ongoing stalemate with defensive end Haason Reddick, leaving the team without two of its top edge rushers. Will McDonald and Takkarist McKinley are the likely candidates to move into Johnson's starting spot at defensive end opposite Micheal Clemons for the Jets' Week 3 matchup with the Patriots.

Jets' Jermaine Johnson: Carted off field
Johnson has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against Tennessee due to an Achilles injury, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Johnson's foot got stuck in the turf during a Will Levis 21-yard scramble in the third quarter, and the former was carted off the field after being checked on by trainers, per Albert Breer of SI.com. It's a big blow for the Jets' defense as Haason Reddick continues to hold out for a contract extension. Will McDonald and Takkarist McKinley will see more snaps at defensive end alongside starter Micheal Clemons with Johnson sidelined for the rest of Sunday's game.
