The Jets will get some fresh faces back but will also be down a couple of starters in Week 7 against the Bills.
In New York’s final injury report of the week, Sam Ficken (groin) and Alex Lewis (shoulder) are listed as doubtful. Ficken suffered a groin injury during practice this week, so the Jets will have to promote Sergio Castillo from the practice squad. Ficken has connected on nine of his 10 field goal attempts and has made all six of his extra-point attempts this season.
As for Lewis, he is considered week-to-week while dealing with the same shoulder injury that cost Sam Darnold the last two games. Josh Andrews will likely start in Lewis’ place.
Barring any setbacks, Darnold (shoulder) and Mekhi Becton (shoulder) are expected to play Sunday, They are officially listed as questionable. In Jamison Crowder’s case, his status is up in the air. New York’s starting slot receiver injured his groin during practice on Wednesday. He sat out Thursday and was limited on Friday. The Jets will have to see how Crowder feels pregame before making a decision one way or another.
George Fant (knee) and Chuma Edoga (calf) are listed as questionable. If Fant is active, he’ll shift over to right tackle after starting on the left side in place of Becton.
