Jets sign Will Parks to active roster

A preseason favorite at the safety position is back on the active roster.

The Jets signed safety Will Parks to the active roster. The Jets also announced the signings of punter Ty Long and CB Jimmy Moreland to the practice squad and released WR Diontae Spencer.

Parks started two games last season for the Jets and had a strong training camp and preseason. Parks was among the final cuts as the team went down to their initial 53-man roster.

The Jets now have five safeties on the active roster: Parks, Jordan Whitehead, Lamarcus Joyner, Ashtyn Davis and Tony Adams.

Update: Jordan Whitehead (ankle) seems unlikely to play Sunday against the Browns as his injury is week-to-week. “Definitely questionable” as head coach Robert Saleh put it. That would explain the call up of Parks.
