Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson will be listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Bills with an elbow injury.
Wilson popped up on the injury report this week with that elbow injury and has been limited in practice all week. Head coach Robert Saleh said “we’ll see” when asked about his availability for Sunday.
Saleh added: “There’s a couple of hurdles he has to clear.” On a positive note, Saleh did say he is optimistic about Wilson playing in Sunday and that “everything is positive.”

Wilson currently has 55 catches for 642 yards and two touchdowns. However, both came in the first two weeks of the season, one of them coming against the Jets’ Week 11 opponent, Buffalo, back in Week 1.
The Jets need all the help they can get. They enter this week at 4-5, one game out of a playoff spot. That spot is being held by the Jets’ Week 14 opponent, the Houston Texans.
New York is also looking for the season sweep of the Bills. Doing so would be the first time since the 2016 season.
