Injury Update 8/15: Po’uha, Holmes, Hunter, Schilens

Defensive linemen Sione Po’uha is going to miss the remainder of the preseason with a lower back problem.  Po’uha was absent from practice yesterday

for an examination on his back but an MRI showed no structural damage.  While needing time away from practice the Jets and Po’uha believe he will be available for opening day.

WR Santonio Holmes did not attend practice today staying inside to receive treatment on his bruised ribs but apparently he was suffering from back stiffness as well.

Looks like RT Wayne Hunter will be back from injury and play on Saturday against the Giants while WR Chaz Schilens, who missed practice today, is unlikely to be available.
