The Jets placed Boyd (shoulder) on injured reserve Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Boyd suffered a shoulder injury during practice in early August, and the issue is serious enough to result in the cornerback being placed on season-ending IR. After signing with New York in mid-March, Boyd had been slated to work as a backup in the secondary as well as serve as a core special-teamer.

Boyd (shoulder) suffered a shoulder injury at the Jets' practice Saturday, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Boyd had his practice reps limited as a result of the injury, and his status for Saturday's preseason opener against the Packers may now be in question. The 28-year-old signed a one-year deal with New York in March, and he stands to operate as a special-teams option in 2025.

Boyd signed a contract with the Jets on Saturday, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
Boyd mostly played on special teams for the Texans in 2024, and he finished the regular season with eight tackles (five solo) and one fumble recovery. He'll likely serve in a similar role with the Jets in 2025, though he'll look to compete for a more prominent role in the secondary in offseason programs and training camp.

EDGE Analysis
Boyd didn't record a tackle before leaving Saturday's contest, and across four preseason outings, he registered eight tackles (seven solo) and three passes defended. Boyd is considered a strong special-teams contributor, which could help him make the Texans' 53-man roster.
