    ■ The team brought back both quarterbacks that were released Saturday in re-signing David Fales and Mike White. Thus all five QBs who participated in the just-concluded training camp are still with the team as Fales and White on the PS rejoin active-roster QBs Sam Darnold, Joe Flacco and rookie James Morgan.

    ■ In the past, only players with two accrued NFL seasons or less were eligible for practice squads, but that rule was set aside this year. Thus seventh-year WR Donte Moncrief, first signed by the Jets on Aug. 31, sixth-year QB Fales and fourth-year TE Ross Travis are all now on the Jets practice squad.

    ■ The Kaufusis are back. Bronson Kaufusi, who switched from DL to TE late in camp, and his younger brother Corbin, the 6-9 offensive lineman, both were signed to the practice squad.

    ■ Four WRs return to the Green & White fold — Moncrief; D.J. Montgomery (acquired on waivers from Cleveland on Aug. 30), Josh Malone (who spent most of last season on the Jets' PS) and undrafted 6-5 rookie Lawrence Cager.

    ■ The secondary was similarly addressed with the signings of three rookie CBs — Javelin Guidry, Lamar Jackson and waiver pickup Zane Lewis — and third-year S Bennett Jackson.

    ■ The four DBs are the only practice-squad signees on defense among the 15 signed players announced, with the other 11 signees on the offensive side of the ball.

    On top of signing players to the practice squad, the Jets resigned offensive lineman Josh Andrews to the active roster on Sunday, according to his agent. Andrews will be the Jets’ backup center.

    If I'm not mistaken, teams can have 16 players on the PS, and we only have 15. I think we can add one more player.

    It will be interesting to see who they protect. You have to think Fales is only there until Flacco is ready to play. There is a strange concentration of certain position groups, which reflects the weaknesses of the main roster.

    Are the rules of signing away PS players from other teams still the same? Match best offer and all that?

    So the eagles are putting josh Mccown on their practice squad as a quarantine qb. 12,000 a week to stay in Texas. Not bad work if you can find it

    Yeah, I'm glad Josh is a good guy or I might be pissed off about that!

    Not to derail this too much but why would someone getting something that doesn’t affect you piss you off?
