Jets Rule Out Safety Minkah Fitzpatrick Against Packers as Jordan Love Brings a Pass-Heavy Attack
Andre Cisco is expected to fill in as the Jets chase a 2-0 start while their defense seeks its first interception in 18 games.
- The New York Jets ruled out safety Minkah Fitzpatrick for Sunday's home opener against the Green Bay Packers due to a groin injury sustained on the sixth defensive play of their season-opening win against the Tennessee Titans.
- Coach Aaron Glenn announced Friday that Fitzpatrick, who has 21 career interceptions, is considered "week to week" with the injury after being acquired in the offseason to bolster the secondary.
- New York also ruled out rookie wide receiver Omar Cooper with a sprained ankle, while veteran Andre Cisco is expected to replace Fitzpatrick in the secondary for the matchup.
- "Yeah, well, we have other experienced guys on our team, too," Glenn said, noting rookie cornerback D'Angelo Ponds is in line to make his NFL debut against Green Bay.
- Facing Packers quarterback Jordan Love, the Jets aim to end an NFL-record drought of 18 games without an interception, as Love passed for 387 yards and two touchdowns in a Week 1 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
