Qwan'tez Stiggers: Everything you need to know

Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said Friday that Stiggers (knee) is ruled out for the team's season finale against the Bills on Sunday. Stiggers will miss Sunday's season finale due to the knee injury he suffered versus the Patriots in Week 17, bringing his 2025 campaign to an end with 27 tackles (17 solo), three passes defensed and two fumble recoveries across 15 regular-season appearance. The 2024 fifth-round pick will stand to spend the coming offseason competing to earn a role in New York's cornerback rotation for the 2026 campaign.

Stiggers (knee) did not practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Stiggers suffered a knee injury this past Sunday against New England and couldn't finish the loss. The extent of the issue isn't clear, but it's certainly not a good sign that he wasn't able to practice in any capacity to begin this week. Should Stiggers be sidelined Sunday against Buffalo, Jordan Clark could absorb most of his cornerback reps.

Stiggers (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Patriots. Stiggers was helped off the field by medical staff in the second half, and with the Jets facing a large deficit, he may not return to Sunday's game even if he's cleared to do so. Tre Brown, Keidron Smith and Jordan Clark are slated to see more defensive snaps if Stiggers does not return.
