What happened: Braiden McGregor tore a pectoral muscle in Week 4 against the Chicago Bears. Nate Lynn moves up from the practice squad after signing during training camp. He earned contention with 3 sacks across the final two exhibition games.

Why it matters: McGregor had earned passing-down snaps while setting the edge on early downs. Lynn has profiled to this point as a pass rusher. The swap reshapes the edge rotation behind New York's starters.

What to watch: Watch his deployment in Week 5 against the Cleveland Browns. Early-down snaps will show whether New York uses him beyond passing situations.
