The Jets will welcome back a starter on their offensive line on Sunday, as George Fant will suit up against the Raiders.
Fant missed New York’s Week 12 matchup against the Dolphins with ankle and knee injuries, and was limited in practice throughout this week. Despite his practice limitations and questionable designation, Fant reassumes his spot at right tackle against Las Vegas. Fellow offensive tackle Chuma Edoga also returns after being out with an ankle injury last week.
Pat Elflein is also good to go against the Raiders after being listed as questionable and limited in practice with a shoulder injury. Elflein will reprise his role as the Jets’ starting left guard with Alex Lewis on the non-football injury list.
New York’s inactives against Las Vegas are James Morgan, Vyncint Smith, Ross Travis, Jimmy Murray and Cameron Clark.
