Final evening the Jets signed former Bears and Packers security Adrian Amos to a one-year deal value as much as $4 million.

On the face of it, it was a wierd signing. Amos is on the flawed facet of 30 and is coming off a season the place he allowed 75% of passes into his protection to be accomplished, permitting 6 receiving touchdowns. He can line up throughout, and he can definitely play that deep centre-field function, however his greatest work comes within the field, similar to Chuck Clark.

We bought an evidence just a few hours after the signing when NFL insider Aaron Wilson tweeted:

There’s main concern that #Jets veteran security Chuck Clark might have suffered season-ending knee damage, together with potential anterior cruciate ligament harm, per league supply, however that isn’t confirmed right now. Second opinion, extra exams pending, per supply.

This could be a significant blow to each the Jets and Clark who’s within the closing 12 months of his deal after coming over in a commerce with Baltimore.

Clark is coming off a 101-tackle season with the Raiders and again in 2021 he recorded 2 interceptions to go along with 12 cross defenses, exhibiting his skill in protection.

If the Jets have gone out and spent near $4 million on an identical security, I believe it’s secure to say they feat the worst and there’s a good likelihood that Clark will miss the 2023 season.

As Wilson mentions, it’s not confirmed but with extra exams and a second opinion incoming.
