The Town boss is currently without the likes of Jon Guthrie and Max Dyche due to injury but will have the services of Willis until at least the January transfer window. The new man has been named on the bench for Saturday’s League One fixture at Shrewsbury.
"We are delighted to welcome Jordan to the club," said Brady. "He is a defender with a huge amount of experience, particularly of playing in League One and we feel he will help add depth to the squad in a key position.
"He has been training with us for a few weeks so we have had the chance to have a good look at him and to see how he fits in, so we know he is ready to go and we believe he will be a good addition.
