Jets' Wes Schweitzer: Activated, set to return Sunday
The Jets activated Schweitzer (hand) off injured reserve Saturday.
This move was expected, as Schweitzer practiced all week and didn't have an injury designation heading into the weekend. The veteran offensive lineman is thus set to suit up in Sunday's Week 14 game against Miami after sitting out the entire campaign to this point due to a hand injury. Schweitzer, who will be a free agent after this season, will likely serve in a rotational role upon his return.

Jets' Wes Schweitzer: Likely to return Sunday
Schweitzer (hand) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins.
Schweitzer was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday and practiced in full all throughout the week, suggesting that he's now recovered from his hand injury. The San Jose State product must still be activated to the Jets' active roster in order to suit up in Week 14. If he's activated, he'll likely serve as one of the Jets' top backup offensive linemen.

Jets' Wes Schweitzer: Gets okay to practice again
The Jets designated Schweitzer (hand) for return to practice from their injured reserve list Wednesday, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.
Schweitzer has missed the entire season so far as he has dealt with a lingering hand injury, but it now seems he could be on track to return soon. The Jets will have 21 days to officially activate him before they'd have to put him back on injured reserve for the rest of the year.

Jets' Wes Schweitzer: Placed on injured reserve
The Jets placed Schweitzer on injured reserve Saturday due to a hand injury, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Schweitzer sustained a hand injury during practice this past week. It appears serious enough that he will be forced to miss at least the first four games of the regular season, and the earliest he can return is Week 5 against the Vikings on Oct. 6. Xavier Newman could serve as the Jets' backup center for Week 1 against the 49ers, though head coach Robert Saleh didn't confirm that plan Saturday.

Jets' Wes Schweitzer: Back on field for OTAs
Schweitzer (calf) was on the field for OTAs on Monday, per the Jets' official site.
Schweitzer landed on the IR twice last season due to a recurring calf injury, but he now appears to be fully recovered. The 2016 sixth-round pick has primarily spent his career at guard, but multiple injuries led to Schweitzer playing across the offensive line last season, including at center.

Jets' Wes Schweitzer: Deemed doubtful
Schweitzer (calf) is considered doubtful for Sunday's matchup with the Patriots.
Barring a quick turnaround, Schweitzer is not trending toward playing. With the Jets out of the playoff picture, that would mean he may have played his last game this season. Still, final confirmation on his status will be made closer to kickoff.

Jets' Wes Schweitzer: Designated to return from IR
The Jets designated Schweitzer (calf) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, and he was a limited participant in practice, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.
Schweitzer has had two stints on injured reserve this season due to a calf injury. The Jets have only one more game left this season and have already been eliminated from playoff contention, so Schweitzer's designation to return Wednesday may mean that the teams intends for him to suit up Sunday versus New England. If that happens, it would be just the seventh game he has played in the campaign.

Jets' Wes Schweitzer: Back on injured reserve
Schweitzer (calf) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.
Schweitzer was placed on injured reserve in late October with the same calf injury, but he was activated prior to Week 13 and played an entire outing against the Falcons. The 30-year-old was ruled out for this Sunday's game versus the Texans on Friday after not practicing the entire week, and his second placement on IR will sideline him for the rest of the season. Linemen Max Mitchell or Billy Turner should see increased opportunities moving forward.

Jets' Wes Schweitzer: Won't suit up Week 14
Schweitzer (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's clash with the Texans.
Schweitzer went on IR at the end of October due to the calf issue, but he was able to make his return this past Sunday versus Atlanta. However, he appears to have aggravated the injury, as he wasn't able to practice at all this week. With Schweitzer ruled out for Sunday, Max Mitchell or Billy Turner could see an increased role.

Jets' Wes Schweitzer: Misses practice Wednesday
Schweitzer (calf) was a nonparticipant at the Jets' practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Schweitzer was able to play through his calf injury in Week 13 versus the Falcons, so his absence Wednesday isn't particularly concerning quite yet. He'll look to return to the field for at least one of the team's final two practice sessions prior to Sunday's matchup with the Texans.

After a full practice Friday, Schweitzer has been activated to the Jets' active roster ahead of Sunday's contest against the Falcons.
