The Jets have officially activated left tackle Duane Brown from injured reserve and he will start Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, his first start as a Jet. In a corresponding move, the Jets placed offensive tackle Max Mitchell on injured reserve.
Brown returned to practice this week after spending the first four weeks of the season on IR with a shoulder injury. The Jets had 21 days to activate Brown to the 53-man roster, but they wasted little time as Brown practiced in some capacity all week and felt very good. He will finally make his Jets debut in the team’s first divisional game of the season against the Dolphins.
