Jets elevated K Jason Sanders and LB Troy Reeder for Sunday’s game vs. the Packers and placed rookie WR Omar Cooper on i Via @AdamSchefter on X

What happened: Sanders and Reeder were moved up from the practice squad for Sunday's game against Green Bay, giving New York extra depth at kicker and linebacker. Cooper, a rookie wide receiver, lands on injured reserve ahead of the matchup.

Why it matters: The shuffle shores up two spots for Week 2 while cutting into the Jets' receiver depth a day before kickoff. Sanders returned to the Jets' practice squad on Sept. 1, and this elevation makes him eligible to kick Sunday.

What to watch: Final inactives will be released 90 minutes before kickoff Sunday. That list will confirm Sanders' role and whether New York makes any further receiver moves around Cooper's absence.
