Not yet. The Jets were granted a roster exemption while signing Revis. Jackson will be waived, and then signed to the PS if he clears. Now that the PS is full, someone will have to be let go.
I thought the exemption allowed them to bring T-Rich back, and Jackson was already cut? EDIT--- never mind
The exemption did allow them to bring Richardson back. They now have 54 men on the roster. Jackson will have to be waived when the exemption ends. EDIT: I may have the numbers wrong. I thought we waived 3 and picked up 2, but we picked up Turner, Dixon, AND Brown. Jackson may have been waived after all. Looks like someone currently on the roster won't be soon.
Well if you combine that with this report from Rotoworld: Then that makes for eight players on the PS. Rotoworld still hasn't added a source yet, though. EDIT: The source was probably Jenny Vrentas on Twitter.

Yeah, that's 53. It doesn't include Dixon, though, who makes it 54. Someone has to get cut when the roster exemption ends.
Doesn't Marcus Dixon have to be on our 53 roster after the waver claim? Edit - Looks like Igy answered it for me, thanks.
Someone will need to be cut when the exemption ends (likely be Patrick Brown).....and someone will need to be cut when Tone returns (likely Patrick Turner.) Gilbert, Warren, Foley, Washington, Jackson, Brown should imo, all be locks for the practice squd.....with Taylor, Mauga, Felix, and Tevaseu all battlin it out for the final two spots.
Sorry, was doing that off the top of my head. Forgot Dixon. It added up to 53, so I thought I was good.
Did your parents have any children that lived? I bet they regret that. I don't like the name Gilbert. That name sounds like royalty. Are you royalty. I don't like the name Gilbert only faggots and sailors are called gilbert. Yea sean gilbert has ruined the name gilbert for me. Just because of his ass hat advice I now hate that name.
Gilbert is a steal that we have gotten from the bears.This guy has a lot of talent and i believe that rex ryan can get this out of him.Hes baseically a 6 foot 6 280 pound de with good speed,you just can't teach that.
