2023 Fantasy Outlook
McGovern re-signed with the Jets after making 48 starts for New York over the previous three seasons. The 30-year-old McGovern will compete with rookie second-round pick Joe Tippmann for the starting center role in 2023. Read Past Outlooks
IR-bound with dislocated kneecap
The Jets will place McGovern (kneecap) on injured reserve Tuesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The transaction comes after McGovern sustained a dislocated kneecap during Sunday's game at the Giants, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. He'll have to miss the Jets' next four games, and in the meantime, Xavier Newman projects to take his place as the starting center, at least as long as Joe Tippmann (quadriceps) is also unavailable.
