C. J. Mosley, the Jets' star linebacker, is facing an uncertain future ahead of Thursday's game against the Patriots. A toe injury sustained in Tennessee has left him questionable for the matchup. Despite not participating in limited practices this week, Mosley might still undergo a pre-game workout to assess his chances of playing.
If Mosley is unable to go, Jamien Sherwood will take his place, having already filled in for the injured linebacker in the previous game against the Titans. Coach Robert Saleh has expressed confidence in Sherwood's ability to lead the defense, citing the young player's impressive development as a professional footballer.
Meanwhile, the Jets received some positive news regarding their injury report. Cornerbacks D. J. Reed and Michael Carter II, who both missed the Titans game, practiced without any injury designation. Reed was sidelined due to a knee issue, while Carter exited the game with an ankle problem.
The kicking situation, which dominated the headlines this week, has also been addressed. Jets punter Thomas Morstead has been preparing for the possibility of kicking extra points or field goals, despite never having done so in his professional career. Morstead, who has kicked off 546 times in his career, has been working on his technique to ensure he's ready for any situation that may arise.
