Open Extended ReactionsFLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Eleven months after rupturing his right Achilles, New York Jets defensive end Jermaine Johnson is poised to take the field.
In a long-anticipated move, the Jets activated Johnson from the physically unable to perform list Sunday, meaning he passed his physical and is cleared to practice.
Johnson, one of three first-round picks in 2022, was injured Sept. 15 in a Week 2 win over the Tennessee Titans.
Williams, slated to miss one to two weeks, is close to returning to practice.
The Jets have two joint practices with the New York Giants this week, with their annual preseason game slated for Saturday night.
