Roster moves: Jets signed CB Jordan Clark to their active roster. They also signed veteran WRs Sterling Shephard and T Via @AdamSchefter on X

What happened: Tuesday's transaction wire split the additions between the 53-man roster and the practice squad, with Clark taking the active spot and Johnson landing in the reserve pipeline. The move continues a run of roster churn after Jordan Clark's earlier Jets roster turn at cutdown time.

Why it matters: Active-roster status puts Clark in immediate range for game-day availability, while Johnson remains a depth option who would need an elevation path later in the week. That gives New York flexibility to address short-term needs in the secondary and keep another receiver in the pipeline.

By the numbers: New York made four moves in the update: one active-roster signing and three practice-squad additions.

What to watch: The next Jets injury report and game-status designations will show whether Clark's move connects to an immediate role in the secondary. Johnson becomes a player to watch if New York needs a practice-squad elevation before kickoff.
