Jets sign K Anders Carlson to active roster

The New York Jets signed kicker Anders Carlson to the 53-man roster from the practice squad on Tuesday.

The move comes two days after Carlson connected on a pair of field-goal attempts — including a 58-yarder — and made all three extra-point tries in New York’s 28-27 loss to the Indianapolis Colts.

Carlson, 26, appeared in two games this season for the San Francisco 49ers and was 5-for-5 on field-goal attempts and 3-for-4 on extra-point tries. The 49ers released Carlson on Nov. 5.

The Green Bay Packers selected Carlson in the sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft out of Auburn. He made 27 of 33 field-goal attempts (81.8 percent) and 34 of 39 extra-point attempts (87.2 percent) during his rookie season.

The Packers released him on Aug. 27 and he signed with the 49ers on Oct. 15 to the practice squad.

Also on Tuesday, the Jets released defensive lineman Bruce Hector. Hector, 30, recorded three tackles in three games with the team this season.
