Bad news for the Jets defensive and special teams units.
The organization announced Tuesday it would be placing rookie linebacker Hamsah Nasirildeen on injured reserve. However, it’s unclear the type of injury that will sideline him.
We've placed LB Hamsah Nasirildeen on IR and signed OL Isaiah Williams to the active roster.

Nasirildeen must now miss at least three straight games. After that, the Jets could designate Hamsah to return to practice, which would then provide the team with a 21-day window to officially activate him.
