Picked up by Gang Green
The Jets signed McGovern (kneecap) to the practice squad Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
McGovern suffered a dislocated kneecap in Week 7 last season, and he finished the campaign on injured reserve. He was brought in for a tryout with the Jets on Wednesday and he did well enough to catch on with the practice squad, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. The 2016 fifth-round pick has started in 55 regular-season games at center for the Jets since 2020.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Plan B for Jets
Bringing back McGovern on a one-year deal could be a contingency plan for the Jets if they don't acquire former Titans center Ben Jones, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
McGovern started 48 games at center for the Jets over the previous three seasons. The soon-to-be 30-year-old free agent was hoping to land a long-term contract this offseason, but McGovern may have to settle for a one-year deal at this point. Jones was released by Tennessee after failing a physical, so it isn't a given that he'll be able to sign with the Jets as the team hopes.
