D.J. Reed Latest News
Back in Thursday
Reed has returned to Thursday's game against the Texans after being evaluated for a possible concussion, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. The cornerback recorded two solo tackles, including 1.0 sacks and a tackle for a loss, and a pass breakup before exiting. Reed had 24 tackles (18 solo) and seven pass breakups in the six previous games he played in this season, and he played on 98-100 percent of the defensive snaps in five of those six.
Questionable to return Thursday
Reed (head) is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Texans. The cornerback recorded two solo tackles, including 1.0 sacks and a tackle for a loss, and a pass breakup before exiting. Reed posted 24 tackles (18 solo) and seven pass breakups in the six previous games he played in this season. Brandin Echols is his backup.
Moves past groin injury
Reed (groin) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's walkthrough, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Reed suffered a groin injury in Week 6 against the Bills, which was severe enough for him to be sidelined during the Jets' Week 7 loss to the Steelers. Reed's ability to practice in full Wednesday, even in a walkthrough, is a good sign that his absence will be limited to just one game. Barring any setback, the Jets should be with their top two corners in Reed and Sauce Gardner for Sunday's AFC East showdown against Drake Maye and the struggling Patriots on Sunday.
Won't play vs. Pittsburgh
Reed (groin) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Steelers. A groin injury from Week 6 against the Bills prevented Reed from participating in practice all week, and he will miss his second game of the regular season. Reed will need to return to the practice field if he wishes to return for Week 8 against the Patriots on Oct. 27. Brandin Echols is the top candidate to start at corner Sunday opposite Sauce Gardner.
Questionable for Sunday
Reed (groin) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Steelers, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Reed didn't practice all week after sustaining a groin injury in the Jets' Week 6 loss to the Bills, but Friday's injury report suggests that he still has a chance to suit up Sunday night. If the veteran corner is unable to play through his groin issue in Week 7, expect Brandin Echols and Qwan'tez Stiggers to see additional work in the Jets' secondary.
Estimated as DNP
Reed (groin) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimation, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports. Reed sustained a groin injury in the Jets' Week 6 loss to the Bills on Monday night, so it's no surprise he was estimated as a DNP on Wednesday. The veteran cornerback will likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation either Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for the Jets' Week 7 matchup against the Steelers.
Doubtful to return Monday
Reed (groin) is doubtful to return to Monday's game against the Bills. The cornerback recorded a solo tackle and a pass defensed before exiting. Brandin Echols and Qwan'tez Stiggers are New York's backup cornerbacks.
Cleared from injury report
Reed (knee) was a full participant during practice Wednesday. Reed has been dealing with a lingering knee issue that he was able to play through in Week 1, but it kept him sidelined for Week 2. His ability to log a full practice Wednesday should put him in line to start Thursday against the Patriots; however, it may be worth noting he practiced in full last Friday before deciding he couldn't play against the Titans during pregame warmups.
Estimated as limited
Reed (knee) was listed as limited in Monday's practice estimation, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports. Reed was unable to suit up for the Jets' Week 2 win due to a lingering knee issue and is expected to remain limited throughout the week with New York playing Thursday night. If the 27-year-old still has not recovered in time for Week 3's matchup with the Patriots, Brandin Echols and Qwan'tez Stiggers project to see more work with the Jets' first-team secondary.
