The Jets played a little roster gymnastics Saturday before their Week 15 showdown against the Detroit Lions.
They have signed linebacker Hamseh Nasirildeen to the active roster and added safety Will Parks after Parks cleared waivers this week.
Parks and defensive lineman Tanzel Smart have been called up from the practice squad for Sunday’s game.
Sunday will be Nasirildeen’s fourth appearance with the active roster on game day this season.
This is the third and final time the Jets are able to elevate Smart from the practice squad. They’ll have to sign him to the active roster if they want to bring him back up.
Smart’s call-up is insurance policy in case Quinnen Williams — who is questionable with a calf injury after missing practice all week — cannot play.
Parks was waived earlier this week but the Jets had hoped to stash him on the practice squad if he was able to clear waivers, which is exactly what happened. Parks has played in 11 games for the Jets this season.
We’ve signed LB Hamsah Nasirildeen to the active roster and signed S Will Parks to the practice squad.
Parks and DL Tanzel Smart have been elevated for tomorrow’s game.
