Jets place Duane Brown on injured reserve, out at least four games

The Jets have placed left tackle Duane Brown on injured reserve with a hip injury. Brown is now out at least four games.

Brown missed practice this week with a hip injury and went for an evaluation Friday. The Jets initially listed Brown as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Patriots. New York then downgraded Brown to out for Sunday. Now he will miss at least the next four games — vs. Patriots, vs. Chiefs, at Broncos, vs. Eagles — while on injured reserve.

The Jets’ bye week comes after the Eagles game so Brown will get at least five weeks of rest before potentially returning in Week 8 against the Giants.

The Jets signed linebacker Sam Eguavoen to the active roster in a corresponding move and also elevated offensive lineman Chris Glaser from the practice squad. They filled Eguavoen’s spot on the practice squad with running back Xazavian Valladay, who was released on Friday.
