    Jefferson (groin) has been an active participant at training camp with the Browns, Scott Petrak of Browns Zone reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson signed with Cleveland in the offseason after ending the 2023 season with the Jets by undergoing surgery to repair two ruptures of his groin. The defensive lineman is competing with the likes of Michael Hall and Siaki Ika for a spot on the active roster in 2024.

    Jefferson (groin) signed a one-year contract with the Browns on Thursday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson will be playing for his fifth team in five years in 2024, after one-year stops with the Bills, Raiders, Seahawks and Jets. The veteran interior lineman had 34 combined tackles last season, including a career-high 6.0 sacks in 14 games, before suffering two ruptures to his groin, which required surgery and ended his season early.

    Jefferson (hip) was placed on injured reserve by the Jets on Tuesday, Ethan Greenberg and John Pullano of the team's official website reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson suffered a hip injury in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins and he'll now be sidelined for the rest of the 2023 regular season. The team signed Jalyn Holmes to the active roster to fill Jefferson's vacancy on the active roster. The 30-year-old will finish his campaign in New York with 34 tackles, including a career-high 6.0 sacks, over 14 contests.

  • Won't return to Week 15 contest

    Jefferson (hip) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against Miami.

    Analysis: Jefferson suffered a hip injury in the first half and was initially deemed questionable to return. However, he's since been ruled out from returning. Solomon Thomas figures to get more reps in Jefferson's stead.

  • Questionable with hip injury

    Jefferson hurt his hip in Sunday's Week 15 game against Miami and is questionable to return.

    Analysis: Jefferson was hurt in the first half and subsequently went to the medical tent for evaluation. New York has since deemed him questionable to return. Jefferson ranks third on the Jets with 6.0 sacks this season.

  • Adds 1.5 sacks to push total to six

    Jefferson had five tackles (one solo), including 1.5 sacks, in Sunday's 13-8 loss to the Falcons.

    Analysis: Jefferson's up to six sacks, which is a new career high for the 30-year-old defensive tackle, surpassing last season's mark of 5.5 with Seattle. He has 31 tackles (12 solo) and 12 quarterback hits while usually hovering around 50 percent of defensive snaps played in a rotational role on the Jets' robust defensive line.

  • Reaches deal with Jets

    The Jets signed Jefferson on Thursday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson is now in line to join New York in 2023, where he'll ultimately pursue his eighth NFL campaign. As a member of the Seahawks this past season, the 291-pounder appeared in all 17 games and tallied 29 tackles and a career-high 5.5 sacks in that span. He'll likely compete for a starting gig throughout the offseason with Solomon Thomas, given Quinnen Williams has a firm grasp on the Jets' other starting defensive tackle spot.

  • Cut by Seattle

    The Seahawks are slated to release Jefferson, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson was solid in a rotational role for Seattle last season, but it appears the veteran defensive tackle will now get a chance to test his value on the open market. The soon-to-be 30-year-old notched a career-high 5.5 sacks across 17 games last season.

  • Good to go versus Rams

    Jefferson (illness) has been deemed active for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Rams.

    Analysis: Jefferson missed two practices during Week 18 prep while dealing with an illness. However, this won't keep him from suiting up for his 17th game of the season Sunday. Expect Jefferson to continue his role as a rotational defensive lineman against the Rams.

  • Back with Seahawks

    Jefferson agreed to terms with the Seahawks on Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson spent four seasons in Seattle to begin his career, and he'll now return to the team after playing elsewhere for two years. The 28-year-old appeared in all 17 games for the Raiders last year and totaled 47 tackles (17 solo), 4.5 sacks, a pass defense and a forced fumble. He's in line for a starting role on the Seahawks' defensive line in 2022.

  • Reenters Saturday's contest

    Jefferson (foot) returned to Saturday's wild-card contest at Cincinnati, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson didn't miss much time, as he was termed questionable to return just before halftime but reentered the game on the Bengals' first drive of the third quarter. He'll continue to line up next to Johnathan Hankins at defensive tackle moving forward.

  • Hurts foot Saturday

    Jefferson injured his foot during Saturday's wild-card game at Cincinnati.

    Analysis: The Raiders made the announcement just before halftime, but not before Jefferson accumulated three tackles, including one sack of Joe Burrow. With Jefferson sidelined, Johnathan Hankins, Solomon Thomas and Damion Square are the defensive tackles available to the Las Vegas defense.

  • Available Week 7

    Jefferson (personal) is active for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

    Analysis: Jefferson was announced as questionable late in the week due to an undisclosed personal matter. The six-year pro has 19 tackles (six solo) and two sacks on the season. He'll look to add to those numbers Sunday against the Eagles.

  • Questionable for Week 7

    Jefferson (personal) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Eagles, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson hasn't practiced at all this week due to a personal matter. If he is unable to play Sunday, Solomon Thomas and Darius Philon will likely see increased snaps against the Eagles.

  • Inks deal with Raiders

    The Raiders signed Jefferson to a contract Wednesday.

    Analysis: Jefferson brings flexibility to the Raiders' defensive line, as he has experience at both the interior and edge positions. However, Clelin Ferrell (shoulder), Yannick Ngakoue and Maxx Crosby (shoulder) will likely handle a bulk of the reps at defensive end, so Jefferson will likely turn his focus mainly to tackle as he heads to Las Vegas. The Raiders also brought in another depth defensive tackle in Solomon Thomas on the first day of the new league year.

  • Released by Buffalo

    The Bills released Jefferson on Wednesday, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson's release doesn't leave the Bills with any dead cap, instead saving the team $6.5 million for 2021. The soon-to-be 28-year-old defensive end, who has put together three straight seasons with at least three sacks, is free to immediately begin searching for his next landing spot.

  • Cleared of hip injury

    Jefferson (hip) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: Jefferson has trended in the right direction all week, upgrading to a full practice Friday after a limited session Thursday and no practice Wednesday. His upward trend culminated in the defensive lineman's removal from the injury report ahead of this high-profile matchup between likely playoff-bound opponents.

    Published: Fri, Dec 11 at 11:53am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Upgrades to limited work

    Jefferson (hip) was listed as limited for Thursday's practice session.

    Analysis: Jefferson was listed as a non-participant for Wednesday's walkthrough session, so he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's primetime contest against the Steelers.

  • DNP on Wednesday

    Jefferson was listed as a non-participant for Wednesday's walk-through practice session due to a hip issue.

    Analysis: Jefferson usually pays 50-plus percent of the defensive snaps and only saw 44 percent in Monday's win over the 49ers, so the injury likely cropped up during the contest. We'll see if he can upgrade his participation later in the week as the Bills prepare for a battle of top teams when they meet the Steelers on Sunday night.

  • Possible starter Sunday

    Jefferson (knee) is active for Sunday's game versus the Patriots.

    Analysis: Jefferson practiced fully Friday and avoided a setback over the weekend, so he'll suit up for Sunday's divisional clash. The 27-year-old could start at defensive tackle because Vernon Butler (groin) is inactive. Jefferson has played at least 50 percent of the defensive snaps in six games this season, but he doesn't carry much IDP value with just 15 tackles, a sack and a pass breakup through seven games.

    Published: Sun, Nov 1 at 9:21am by Rotowire.com

  • Question mark for Patriots

    Jefferson (knee) practiced fully Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

    Analysis: This is a big improvement from Thursday, when Jefferson was unable to practice at all, though sometimes these things are by design for Sean McDermott's veteran players. Assuming Jefferson can go Sunday, he could be in line for some extra work if fellow defensive tackle Vernon Butler (groin) is unable to go.

  • Ready for Week 4

    Jefferson (foot) practiced fully Thursday after missing Wednesday's session.

    Analysis: Jefferson is a key part of Buffalo's defensive line rotation and looks he should be fine as the team tries to move to 4-0 with a victory this week in Las Vegas.

  • Bothered by foot injury

    Jefferson (foot) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: This news is a bit concerning since Jefferson underwent surgery in January to repair a Jones fracture in his foot, although there's no indication that his current injury is related. It's something to keep an eye on, though, as Jefferson has started and played at least 63 percent of snaps in every game this season.

  • Ready for Sunday's contest

    Jefferson (illness) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report and is expected to play in Sunday's game versus the Jets.

    Analysis: Jefferson underwent surgery in January to repair a Jones fracture, and he wasn't healthy entering camp. Once he shook that off, Jefferson fell ill. However, he appears back at full health heading into his first season with the Bills. The team has a loaded defensive front, but Jefferson could be in line for a decent workload anyway since he can play both defensive end and defensive tackle.

  • Misses Monday's practice

    Jefferson missed Monday's practice session due to illness, Jourdon LaBarber of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: While the illness is not thought to be COVID-19 related, Jefferson has already missed a short amount of time with a foot injury. With no preseason games with his new teammates, it would help if he can finish the last couple weeks of practices on a healthy run.

  • Back practicing

    Jefferson (foot) participated in Wednesday's practice, Mark Gaughan of The Buffalo News reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson dealt with foot soreness last week, but it looks like the depth defensive tackle has already managed to return to full health. He could be a significant rotational player for the Bills' defensive front.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Misses Wednesday's practice

    Jefferson (foot) didn't practice Wednesday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Coach Sean McDermott labeled the injury as "soreness," so it sounds like Jefferson is dealing with something that might be on the mild side. Jefferson joined the Bills on a two-year pact this offseason after totaling 26 tackles, 3.5 sacks and three pass breakups over 14 games with Seattle in 2019.

    Published: Wed, Aug 19 at 7:56am by Rotowire.com

  • Joining loaded defensive front

    Jefferson (foot) is expected to fill a rotational role on a Buffalo defensive line that includes Star Lotulelei, Ed Oliver, Vernon Butler, Jerry Hughes, Mario Addison and rookie second-rounder A.J. Epenesa, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old may end up seeing fewer snaps compared to his 2019 campaign with the Seahawks, but that doesn't necessarily mean he'll see a drop in production. Jefferson had career highs in tackles (26) and sacks (3.5) last season and suffered a fractured foot in the final game of the year, but the subsequent surgery shouldn't impact his status for 2020.

  • Heading out East

    Jefferson (foot) agreed to terms on a two-year contract with the Bills on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Bills choose to beef up their defensive front by adding an established veteran in Jefferson. Although Jefferson underwent surgery this offseason to repair a fractured foot he suffered during the playoffs, he was only facing about an eight-week return after surgery Jan. 15. The 26-year-old finished the regular season with a career-high 26 tackles to go with 3.5 sacks and he added two more sacks in the wild-card win over Philadelphia.

  • Faces eight-week recovery

    Jefferson will undergo surgery in the near future to repair the Jones fracture he suffered in last weekend's divisional-round loss to the Packers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson's injury will require eight weeks of recovery, so he'll be healthy just in time for free agency in March. The Seahawks would like to retain Jefferson if the price is right, as the 26-year-old proved effective in a utility role in 2019, lining up at defensive tackle but also working as an edge rusher. He finished the regular season with a career-high 26 tackles to go with 3.5 sacks, and he added two more sacks in the wild-card win over the Eagles. His potential role for Seattle in 2020…read more

  • Requires foot surgery

    Jefferson will undergo surgery to address his fractured foot in the near future, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old sustained the broken foot during Sunday's divisional-round loss to the Packers and was limited to 29 defensive snaps, his second-lowest snap total of the season. A specific recovery timeline likely won't be known until after he undergoes the procedure, but Jefferson will have until mid-March to recover before the official start of free agency.

  • Breaks foot in season-ending loss

    Jefferson broke his foot in Sunday's 28-23 loss to the Packers in the divisional round, Josina Anderson of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson told Anderson he'll go get further testing if need be. This loss ended Seattle's season, so the defensive lineman should have plenty of time to heal up before NFL training camps open in July. Jefferson, who registered 3.5 sacks and 26 tackles in 14 regular-season contests, is set to become a free agent in March.

  • Injures foot in playoff game

    Jefferson (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's divisional round against the Packers, Gregg Bell of the Tacoma News Tribune reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson was spotted on crutches on the sideline, which doesn't bode well for his chances of returning to this one. There's a good chance this injury is related to the ankle injury Jefferson was battling during the week.

  • Ready for divisional matchup

    Jefferson (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's matchup versus the Packers.

    Analysis: After practicing in a limited fashion Thursday and Friday, Jefferson will be ready to rock for Sunday's playoff game. With the Maryland product suiting up, he's expected to assume his normal depth role on the interior of the defensive line.

  • Draws questionable designation

    Jefferson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson practiced in limited fashion Thursday and Friday and appears to be a true game-time decision at this point. Bryan Mone would be the only interior depth available on the defensive line if Jefferson is unable to give it a go.

  • Practices in full Friday

    Jefferson (oblique) logged a full practice Friday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson has been dealing with an oblique injury since mid-October but appears ready to suit up Monday. The fourth-year interior lineman played a large part in Seattle's defensive scheme prior to his injury and should play a key role in slowing down the 49ers' high-octane run offense in Week 10.

  • Inactive for Sunday's contest

    Jefferson (oblique) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Jefferson has been logging a starter's snap count this year at defensive tackle, but his ability to play all four positions on the Seahawks' defensive front gives the team additional versatility. The 26-year-old's absence will afford second-year pro Poona Ford a start Sunday.

  • Draws doubtful tag

    Jefferson (oblique) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's tilt against the Buccaneers, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.

    Analysis: Jefferson missed the Week 8 win over the Falcons due to the oblique injury and looks on track to miss at least one more game on account of the issue. Al Woods and Poona Ford should pick up some additional snaps on the interior of the defensive line if Jefferson ends up being inactive for the second straight week.
