The Falcons have a much longer injury report than the Jets do, but none of the injuries are really anything surprising. Receiver Drake London remaining out of practice is nothing new, as he continues to heal from a knee injury. London was already considered week-to-week as the team decided not to place him on injured reserve which would’ve kept him sidelined for a minimum of four games. With that being said, head coach Raheem Morris implied that it’s doubtful London will play against the Jets, and considering that he hasn’t practiced at all in a while, I think that’s a safe bet.
Looking at the Jets, they easily have the smallest injury report that I have seen all season. Only two of their players were listed, with the one missing practice, lineman Joe Tippmann, only missing due to personal reasons. Their defensive lineman Harrison Phillips is dealing with a foot injury which has him limited in practice, although it doesn’t sound that serious to keep him out on Sunday.
