As we mentioned earlier, Joe Flacco will start on Sunday as Zach Wilson is still not 100% after his knee injury. Here is the official update from Robert Saleh.
Injuries real quick, Zach (Wilson), obviously, he’s still dealing with his knee. He’s getting a lot better, he’s still going to practice, he’s just limited. (Alijah) Vera-Tucker is limited with a toe. He’s not in doubt for Sunday. Same thing with Shep (Nathan Shepherd), he’s fine for Sunday, he’s just going to be a little bit limited today.
The status of Denzel Mims doesn’t seem as clear right now. Saleh said that he is still in COVID protocol, and he feeling good but they need him to test negative a few times. He didn’t know if Mims was symptom free.
The injury list isn’t too long right now but the Jets did make several roster moves earlier this week.
Roster moves:
– TE Kenny Yeboah and CB Rachad Wildgoose signed to active roster.
– CB Brandin Echols placed on IR.
– LB Corey Thompson and WR Keelan Doss signed to practice squad
– LB Noah Dawkins placed on practice squad IR.— New York Jets (@nyjets) November 16, 2021
