Jets general manager Joe Douglas reached into his Baltimore Ravens’ past to find a roster replacement for injured linebacker Avery Williamson.
The Jets announced on Saturday they have placed Williamson on injured reserve and agreed to a deal with eighth-year linebacker Albert McClellan.
The 6-2, 250-pound McClellan, 33, served mainly as a backup and a special teams contributor after signing with the Ravens as an undrafted free agent out of Marshall in 2010. He split last season between the Ravens and the Patriots, winning his second Super Bowl.
