FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers finally has his blindside protector.
Left tackle Duane Brown was activated Wednesday from the physically unable to perform list, meaning he's cleared to practice as the Jets continue their final week of training camp.
Brown, who underwent rotator cuff surgery after the season, will be ready for the season opener against the Buffalo Bills, coach Robert Saleh said. He won't play in the preseason finale; the Jets face the New York Giants on Saturday, with Rodgers slated to make his Jets debut.
