Bryan Thomas And Patrick Turner Are Back

The carousel with the Jets roster continues, this time Bryan Thomas and Patrick Turner have been signed once again.  WR Stephen Hill has a pulled hamstring so bringing Turner back makes a lot of sense.  Especially when you factor in how the Jets offense struggled yesterday. Here is the official announcement from the Jets, along with some additional roster moves:

The New York Jets have signed LB Bryan Thomas and WR Patrick Turner and waived DT Marcus Dixon, DB Donnie Fletcher and T Dennis Landolt. The announcements were made by General Manager Mike Tannenbaum.
