Jets' Tyler Baron: Unlikely to return Sunday
Rotowire
Baron (knee) is doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Baron had his knee injury briefly evaluated in the blue medical tent before being carted to the locker room. Micheal Clemons is set to see more rotational snaps at defensive end behind Will McDonald and Jermaine Johnson for the rest of Sunday's game, assuming Baron doesn't return.
The Jets selected Baron in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 176th overall.
Baron enjoyed an impressive 2025 NFL Combine, highlighted by a 4.62 40-yard dash and 36-inch vertical jump at 6-foot-5, 258 pounds. His production was solid during his final two college seasons at Tennessee and Miami, respectively, and he led the Hurricanes with 11.0 tackles for loss and 5.5 sacks in 2024. Baron needs to work on establishing himself as a run stopper before he can work into a three-down rotation, but his plus athleticism could open the door to a situational pass-rushing role in New York.
