The Jets signed McGovern (kneecap) to the practice squad Wednesday.
McGovern suffered a dislocated kneecap in Week 7 last season, and he finished the campaign on injured reserve. He was brought in for a tryout with the Jets on Wednesday and he did well enough to catch on with the practice squad, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. The 2016 fifth-round pick has started in 55 regular-season games at center for the Jets since 2020.
