DT Marlon Tuipulotu: A triceps injury keeps the defensive tackle out for a second straight game.

Defensive tackle Moro Ojomo and offensive tackle Tyler Steen will dress for their second consecutive game to provide depth at their respective positions.

Cornerback Mekhi Garner will make his NFL debut with Slay absent. Garner, along with Devon Allen, were elevated from the practice squad. Allen will dress for the second time this season.

Safety Justin Evans and wide receiver Quez Watkins were placed on Injured Reserve late this week. They will both be eligible to return for the Week 11 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Linebacker Nakobe Dean makes his return to the field today after being activated off the Injured Reserve list. Dean suffered a foot injury in the season opener against New England.

The Jets will be thin in the secondary with their two starting cornerbacks out. Sauce Gardner and D.J. Reed miss out with concussions. Cornerbacks Brandin Echols and Justin Hardee are also out. They both play big roles on special teams. - Written by Owen Boyle
