The Story in 60 Seconds

The New York Jets have activated veteran wide receiver Tim Patrick from injured reserve, the team announced on Saturday. Patrick had missed at least four games due to a groin injury before returning to practice earlier this week. The 32-year-old, who signed a one-year, $2 million contract in free agency, is now eligible to play immediately for the 1-3 Jets.

Patrick's return provides help for an offense missing Adonai Mitchell and rookie Omar Cooper Jr. In a corresponding roster transaction, New York waived undrafted rookie wide receiver Jamaal Pritchett, who could potentially re-sign with the practice squad if he clears waivers. The Jets also elevated linebacker Jaden Keller from the practice squad for Week 5.
