Patriots' Conor McDermott: Inks two-year extension
The Patriots signed McDermott to a two-year, $3.6 million contract extension Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
New England inked McDermott midway through the 2022 season off the Jets' practice squad, and he did enough to earn a new two-year deal with the team. His new contract includes $750,000 in playing-time incentives. As Yates notes, McDermott finished the final six games of the 2022 season as the Patriots' starting right tackle.

Patriots' Conor McDermott: Signs with New England
The Patriots signed McDermott to their active roster from the Jets' practice squad Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
After starter Isaiah Wynn (foot) left early during Sunday's win versus the Jets, New England saw fit to add McDermott to provide some depth to its offensive line. He'd provide an option at tackle if Trent Brown or Yodny Cajuste were to go down.

Jets' Conor McDermott: Participates fully at practice
McDermott (ankle) was a full participant in practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
McDermott had been dealing with an ankle injury and was inactive for Week 1 versus Baltimore, but he now appears to have fully recovered. With starting left tackle Duane Brown on injured reserve and George Fant a non-participant at practice Wednesday, McDermott could very well be asked to start at one of New York's tackle spots Week 2 at Cleveland.

Jets' Conor McDermott: Sits out of practice
McDermott (ankle) did not participate in team drills Monday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
The extent of McDermott's injury isn't yet clear. His absence should create more opportunities for Chuma Edoga and 2022 fourth-rounder Max Mitchell at tackle. Also, Mekhi Becton (knee) left practice Monday after suffering an injury, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports, so McDermott could be in line for an expanded role when he returns.
