There is a snag with the Jets’ latest acquisition.
Tackle Jeff Otah, whom the Jets acquired from the Panthers in a trade Monday, failed his physical and has been placed on the active/physically unable to perform list, according to a source. That means he won’t be practicing tomorrow when the Jets begin training camp. If he cannot pass a physical in the next seven days, the trade will be nullified.
The Jets brought Otah in to compete for the starting right tackle job with incumbent Wayne Hunter. But Otah is a health risk. He has finished the last three seasons on injured reserve and played only 29 games in his four-year career.
