The Jets will take another step toward starting training camp Friday.
Rookies, quarterbacks and injured players will all have their initial COVID-19 tests at the team’s training center. They then will be tested again on Monday. If they test negative twice they will be allowed inside the building on Tuesday.
Rookies were scheduled to report for training camp last Tuesday, but the Jets delayed testing for three days to get a better understanding of the protocols, which were agreed to Monday night. The full team is scheduled to report for testing on Tuesday. Training camp can begin after players are tested and undergo physicals. Players are fighting for an extended acclimation period to begin training camp before actual practices start.
The team also signed third-round pick safety Ashtyn Davis on Thursday. It is a four-year, $4.9 million deal. The Jets now have their entire draft class under contract.
