Full Friday Injury Update:

Jets S Marcus Maye may not be able to take the field on Monday night in Detroit, as he was once again a non-participant in practice on Friday.

Maye continues to nurse a foot injury that he says isn't related to ankle surgery that he received this offseason. Head coach Todd Bowles said the foot was "sore" on Thursday, but Friday he addressed who would take his place if he is deemed ineligible to play.

"(It's) between Doug Middleton and J.J. (Wilcox)," Bowles told reporters on Friday. "We will work with both and make a decision if he couldn't go."

Another player that may be out against the Lions is WR Jermaine Kearse, who is dealing with an abdomen injury. Bowles said "we've still got time" to see if Kearse will be game ready, and luckily the Jets get an extra day than the rest of the league. He was seen limited in practice on Thursday, and the same result made it into the injury report Friday.

Linebackers Jeremiah Attaochu (calf) and Avery Williamson (hamstring) were also limited, while LB Josh Martin was out with Maye as he deals with a concussion.

Luvu being activated means Josh Martin didn't clear concussion protocol...

Expect Lawrence Thomas to be back after the Lions game... I wish we would bring back Dimitri Flowers instead tho...

If you want to know what a first ballot HOF QB looks like, I hope you guys are watching the Packers vs. Bears game. Rodgers has worked his magic again, on one leg basically. He is absolutely phenomenal and we can only hope Darnold can be half as great. QBs like Rodgers come along every once in a generation MAYBE??? If Darnold can be anywhere close, we should be above and beyond grateful.

Let's win this one for Al Dorrow, Larry Grantham, Dick Geusman and all the other Titans of New York who led the way.

I think we all know that there will be growing pains with Darnold. That's a given. What I would like to see is some good coaching coming from Bowles and his staff. For the past three years I can't remember a game I thought the Jets out coached their opponent. Bowles just doesn't seem to have a feel for the game and rarely do I see adjustments in the second half that pass the eye test. We'll see if he's learned anything.

lets not be hasty..

to hear it told by some, a rookie HC needs years & years before questioning minimal to no improvement..

Without a pass rush elite QB's will eat you alive in this league Circa 2018, so I think the best we can do is hold Detroit to 31 and Darnold is still too raw to win a shootout on MNF on the road. He'll show flashes of brilliance, but not enough to win a Monday nite shootout on the road verses a veteran FQB with a cannon for an arm, verses an anemic pass rush.

HOPE I'M WRONG, I'd be thrilled to eat those words.

He's definitely capable of putting up decent numbers for games or even stretches of games, but you're right about the fools gold. Just don't count on that level of production.

If the defense pulls their head out fo their ass then we can win this game. Darnold can play well enough to win, but the defense has to live up to its "potential".

As much as I’m hoping for a win tonight and every week, as we all are I don’t quite see it happening for the Jets tonight. I would say the Jets will probably lose by 10. I’ll score it at 27-17.
