The Jets are shoring up their offensive line, picking up Kohl Levao from their practice squad on Thursday morning. This move comes as they face a road game against the Bears this Sunday, and they’ll be without left guard Dylan Parham, who is sidelined with a knee injury. It’s all about depth, especially when injuries hit hard.
Levao’s Path to the Roster Spot
This isn’t Levao’s first rodeo with the Jets. He’s actually spent the last two seasons grinding it out on their practice squad, patiently waiting for his shot. The guy hasn’t seen any regular season action yet, but he did get some experience in the UFL after his college days at Hawaii wrapped up in 2022. Now, with Parham out, the door is wide open for him to prove what he can do on the active roster.
Other Roster Shuffles
To make room for Levao and other moves, the Jets also made some shifts to their practice squad earlier in the week. They brought back cornerback Jordan Clark and kicker Blake Grupe to the practice squad after waiving them from the active roster. It’s the usual dance of roster management in the NFL, but for Levao, it’s a huge moment.
Levao’s got a big opportunity to step up and provide that crucial depth. The Jets are heading into a road game this Sunday against the Bears, and they’ll be counting on everyone to fill the gaps, especially on that O-line. Keep an eye on how this line shakes out.
