FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — The New York Jets placed safety Marcus Gilchrist and right tackle Breno Giacomini on season-ending injured reserve on Tuesday.
The team also announced it had promoted safety Ronald Martin and offensive lineman Craig Watts from the practice squad. Guard Martin Wallace was also signed to the practice squad.
Gilchrist tore the patellar tendon in his right knee on the opening kickoff of the second half of the Jets’ win at San Francisco on Sunday. He is tied for the team lead with two interceptions and is largely considered the quarterback of Todd Bowles’ secondary.
