On the same day they acquired WR Davante Adams, the New York Jets lost a starting safety. Veteran Chuck Clark has been placed on IR due to an ankle injury, the team announced Tuesday. He won’t see the Pittsburgh Steelers this weekend.
Clark suffered the injury during Monday night’s 23-20 loss to the Buffalo Bills, leaving after logging just 10 snaps. He had start last night and the team’s previous five games of the season and is fourth on the team with 32 tackles. He had also recorded a forced fumble, fumble recovery, and pass deflection this season.
