Jets elevate Sterling Shepard and Jamien Sherwood insurance from practice squad ahead of Week 4

The New York Jets have elevated veteran wide receiver Sterling Shepard and linebacker Jaden Keller from the practice squad ahead of their Week 4 contest against the Chicago Bears. The roster moves address injury concerns, with wide receiver Adonai Mitchell ruled out and both Omar Cooper Jr. and Tim Patrick placed on injured reserve.

Shepard is being elevated for the second consecutive week following a crucial two-point conversion catch against the Detroit Lions. Meanwhile, Keller will serve as depth behind linebacker Jamien Sherwood, who has faced recent struggles in coverage.
