Jets injury report: Denzel Mims, Frank Gore, Pierre Desir miss practice with hamstrings

Denzel Mims, Frank Gore and two other Jets players missed practice due to hamstring injuries.

The Jets are one practice in and they’re already dealing with injuries.

New York completed its first official practice of training camp with no pads on Friday, but without a few key players. Denzel Mims, Frank Gore, Pierre Desir and Bronson Kaufusi all missed practice with hamstring injuries. Rookie Jabari Zuniga sat out of practice due to a quad injury.

Adam Gase said Mims took an awkward step while running routes on air a couple of days ago. Gase added that it’s not ideal for Mims, a rookie, to miss practice due to injury considering there were no OTAs or minicamp this offseason. Gase mentioned that the Jets could bring in a veteran wide receiver if Mims is out for an extended period of time.

Vyncint Smith got reps as the No. 3 wide receiver in place of Mims.

As for Gore, Gase said he tweaked his hamstring last week and the Jets sat him out of practice as a precaution. Gore has been doing some group work, though.
