Roster News: Duvernay-Tardif and Flacco added to Covid-19 reserve
The Jets added two more names to the Covid-19 reserve list today:
QB Joe Flacco and RG Laurent Duvernay-Tardif join the #Jets' growing list, which is now 20 ... and counting.

Mike White, just back from the COVID-19 list, will be the backup to Zach Wilson.
Greg Van Roten likely in at RG for LDT.
Flacco isn't a major loss now that Mike White is back but the Jets are down both starting guards right now. The projected starting offensive line will look like this:
Fant / Feeney / McGovern / Van Roten / Moses
(That's assuming Fant, limited the past two days with a knee issue, will play. Otherwise Conor McDermott might be back in at left tackle).
As things stand the Jets are still in a position to fill out a roster for Sunday, although they'll be down several starters. There's still time for players to be reactivated ... but of course there's also time for even more players to go down too. We'll keep an eye on this.
