Prior to the New York Jets’ game against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, the Jets placed linebacker Kiko Mauigoa on the injured reserve list. They also signed linebacker Jaden Keller to the active roster and elevated offensive tackle Brant Banks and linebacker Troy Reeder from the practice squad.
Kiko Mauigoa is a 23 year old, 6” 2”, 233 pound second year linebacker out of the University of Miami. He played just 26 snaps this season, all on special teams, without registering any stats.
Brant Banks is a 26 year old, 307 pound second year offensive tackle out of Rice. He was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Green Bay Packers in 2025 and played two games for them last year, playing a total of six snaps for the Packers, all on special teams. The Packers released Banks in August, 2026 and the Jets signed him to the practice squad. He has yet to play a snap in the NFL in 2026.

Reeder spent his entire NFL career with the Rams through the 2025 season. In July 2026 the Detroit Lions signed Reeder, and he was with the Lions through their 2026 training camp before the Lions released him prior to the start of the 2026 season. Reeder was signed to the Jets practiced squad in early September and has been elevated to the active roster a couple of times since then. Reeder has played 85 snaps in four games with the Jets, all on special teams. He has recorded four tackles this season.
Jaden Keller is a 23 year old, 6’ 3”, 235 pound linebacker out of Virginia Tech. He went undrafted in 2026 and the Jets signed him as an undrafted free agent before releasing him prior to the start of the regular season and adding him to the practice squad. Keller made his NFL debut three weeks ago when the Jets elevated him from the practice squad. In three games with the Jets Keller has played 60 snaps, all on special teams, and recorded one tackle.
