Lands on active/PUP list Johnson (Achilles) was put on the active/PUP list by the Jets on Saturday.

Impact This move was expected, as Johnson tore his Achilles in Week 2 of the 2024 campaign and still had not returned by OTAs in May and June. At the same time, Jets coach Aaron Glenn said in June that Johnson should be ready for the start of the regular season, per Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic. Two years ago, the defensive end recorded 55 tackles (36 solo), including 7.5 sacks, and seven pass breakups.

Jets' Jermaine Johnson expects to return Week 1 against Aaron Rodgers, Steelers

Hoping to be available Week 1 Coach Aaron Glenn said Tuesday that Johnson (Achilles) is expected to start training camp on the PUP list in July, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Impact Despite that, Glenn said he believes Johnson will be ready by the start of the 2025 season. Johnson still has about three months to recover from the Achilles tear he suffered in Week 2 of last season to make that a reality, but for now, 2023 first-rounder Will McDonald and Micheal Clemons should be taking first-team reps in practice.

Garrett Wilson, after frustrating season, says he hopes he's 'a Jet for life'

Sidelined Wednesday Johnson (Achilles) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Impact As expected, Johnson will begin the Jets' offseason activities on the sidelines as he continues to recover from the torn Achilles sustained two games into the 2024 season. According to Costello, he's likely to remain out until training camp. Once healthy, the 2023 first-round pick is expected to return as one of the Jets' top pass rushers in 2025.

Officially back with Gang Green The Jets exercised Johnson's (Achilles) fifth-year option Wednesday.

Impact Despite tearing his Achilles two games into the Jets' 2024 campaign, Johnson's fifth-year option has been picked up, keeping him in New York through the 2026 season. Johnson was one of the Jets' most productive pass-rushers in 2023, logging 55 total tackles, including 7.5 sacks, and seven passes defended, with one pick-six, over 17 regular-season contests. The Florida State product is expected to be ready for the start of OTAs this spring and will likely remain one of New York's top edge rushers in 2025.

Officially placed on IR The Jets placed Johnson (Achilles) on injured reserve Thursday.

Impact Johnson is done for the year after suffering a torn right Achilles' tendon in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans, so his placement on IR doesn't come as a surprise. The standout defensive end's injury takes on particular severity for New York due to edge rusher Haason Reddick's ongoing holdout, but for the time being, Will McDonald and Micheal Clemons appear primed to start at defensive end Thursday versus the Patriots. Johnson will turn his full attention toward making a recovery for the 2025 season.
