Obviously, the great news is on Eric Decker. He practiced today for the first time all week for the Jets, and is listed as questionable. Rex Ryan has said all week that Decker did not need to practice in order to play on Monday night, but it is a great sign for the Jets that he did practice today.

If I had to make a prediction, Dee Milliner will not play on Monday night. That might be a blessing in disguise for the Jets, as Dee didn’t look ready last week. He is listed as doubtful.

Seeing Alshon Jeffery and Brandon Marshall listed as questionable is not a bad sign for the New York Jets. If either one or both of them are out, or at reduced speed on Monday night, the Jets will catch a huge break. LB Shea McClelin has been ruled out with is a break for Geno Smith and crew.
