The biggest surprise this week is Jarvis Landry landing as questionable. He has a knee injury that has kept him out of practice this week. Coaches however believe that he will be good to play on Sunday and said that is inactivity at practice has been precautionary.
"“Today we wanted to sit him to get him feeling good for the game,” Campbell said, via ESPN.com. “We’ll know more tomorrow, but I’d say I feel pretty good about it. I feel like he’s going to be able to play.”For the Jets, Darrelle Revis will be out with a concussion and safety Dion Bailey is doubtful with an ankle injury. Nick Mangold and defensive end Sheldon Richardson are both probable."
Rounding out the Dolphins injury report are DE Chris McCain listed as doubtful with a hip injury. CB Bobby McCain, knee, safety Reshad Jones, pec, safety Walt Aikens, ankle, LT Branden Albert, non-football related, and running back Jay Ajayi, elbow, are are listed as probable.
The Dolphins are seriously banged up at linebacker which will most likely give Neville Hewitt and Zach Vigil extended playing time and we will also see more of Mike Hull as well.
Last week Jenkins tried to run on his foot during pre-game warm-ups and was a late scratch being designated inactive. It’s likely we won’t know his status until just before the game.
For the Jets, Darrelle Revis is out with a concussion and safety Dion Bailey is doubtful with an ankle injury. Nick Mangold and Sheldon Richardson are probable.
