Miles (neck/hip) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Ethan Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miles picked up the neck and hip injuries Week 8 and didn't play in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, and he'll now miss the rest of the season. The special teams captain will finish 2019 with seven total tackles in seven games.

Miles (neck/hip) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Miles has not played a snap on defense in either of the last two weeks as his main role is on special teams. He will miss his first game of the year.

The Jets activated Miles to their 53-man roster Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Miles appears to have fully recovered from a meniscus injury sustained during training camp, and rejoins Gang Green's active roster. The rotation safety will serve as the primary backup to starter Marcus Maye during Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

Miles (knee) was spotted with a helmet on at practice for the first time this season Wednesday, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports. However, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site notes that he won't return in Week 8 against the Bears.

EDGE Analysis

Miles landed on the PUP list to begin training camp following a meniscus injury and has yet to return to action since that point. He took a positive step by appearing with his helmet on at practice Wednesday, but there's still no specific timetable laid out for his return at this point.

Miles (meniscus) has landed on the PUP list to begin training camp, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Given his 3-to-4 month recovery timetable that surfaced in early June, it's not a huge surprise that the team made the move given the lengthy recovery time remaining ahead of him. Miles is projected to serve as a backup safety and special-teams contributor when healthy, though his absence could leave an opening for J.J. Wilcox to slot in higher on the depth chart.

Miles underwent surgery Wednesday to address a torn meniscus in his knee and is expected to be sidelined for 3-to-4 months, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

While the circumstances behind Miles' injury are unclear, it's likely that he injured the knee at some point during the Jets' offseason program. The projected timetable means that Miles won't be ready for the start of training camp and will almost certainly be placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list in the near future. If Miles' recovery trends to the longer end of that timeframe, he'll be a candidate for injured reserve, though he could be designated as one of two players eligible to return from IR. Miles was projected to serve as the top backup at either safety spot, but his injury now opens the door for the newly signed J.J. Wilcox to take on greater importance in the New York secondary.

Miles signed his restricted free agent tender with the Jets on Monday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miles has served primarily as a specials teamer during his tenure in New York. In all likelihood, Miles should reassume his role as leader of the specials teams units in 2018. With Jamal Adams and Marcus Maye leading the backend of the secondary, Miles would only see time at safety if an injury or two were to present itself.

Miles has been tendered by the Jets as an exclusive rights free agent, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miles posted 24 tackles (21 solo) in 13 games for the Jets in 2017, a significant slide from his productive 2016 season. The 29-year-old played only 125 defensive snaps for the Jets last season, primarily serving as a special teams player.

The Saints have left Miles (hamstring) off their final injury report heading into Sunday's game versus the Saints.

EDGE Analysis

After logging a full practice Friday, Miles appears to be on track to resume his role providing depth at safety in Week 15. Terrence Brooks would be next in line for extended time should Miles ultimately suffer any setbacks in the contest.

Miles was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice due to a hamstring injury.

EDGE Analysis

Miles is currently a depth option in the Jets' secondary. If Miles is forced to miss Sunday's game against the Saints, Terrence Brooks would be the only backup safety listed behind starters Marcus Maye and Jamal Adams.
