The NY Jets enter their Week 13 game against the Seattle Seahawks looking to secure a rare win. The Jets have lost seven of their last eight games and have plummeted back down to the NFL's basement.
Despite lofty Super Bowl aspirations and a self-proclaimed best roster in franchise history, the Jets find themselves with a 3-8 record staring at a potential top-five pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Robert Saleh and Joe Douglas have been fired, Aaron Rodgers appears to be on his way out, and the Jets' players are reportedly "checked out" and going through the motions over the final six weeks of the season.
That doesn't bode well for the team's chances of winning against a Seahawks game riding a two-game winning streak. Seattle sits atop the NFC West with a 6-5 record following consecutive divisional wins over the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona Cardinals.
The Seahawks are relatively healthy heading into this week's game. Seattle has ruled out linebacker Uchenna Nwosu (thigh) and right tackle Stone Forsythe (hand), both of whom are still on the injured reserve. Every player on their 53-man roster is expected to be eligible to play in today's game.
The Jets have ruled out left tackle Tyron Smith (neck), who was placed on IR on Saturday. Safety Chuck Clark (shin), running back Breece Hall (knee), offensive lineman Jake Hanson (hamstring), linebacker C.J. Mosley (neck), and offensive lineman Xavier Newman (concussion) are all listed as questionable.
Hall is expected to play despite a brief injury scare that sidelined him for Wednesday's practice. He was a full participant on Friday and should be good to go today.
Clark was a surprise addition to the injury report after popping up as a limited participant on Friday. Mosley could return for the first time since Week 7 after practicing fully on Wednesday and Thursday. Newman is expected to play after being activated off the IR.
Who are the official inactives for both the Jets and the Seahawks today? We've got you covered.
Full inactives list for NY Jets in Week 13
- RB Israel Abanikanda
- CB Jarrick Bernard-Converse
- OT Max Mitchell
- OL Jake Hanson
- DE Braiden McGregor
- LB C.J. Mosley
Running back Breece Hall is active after being listed as questionable with a knee injury. There was genuine concern that Hall would be unable to play after tweaking his knee in the Colts game, but the Jets were pleased with his progress and he will be a full go today.
Linebacker C.J. Mosley is inactive again with a neck injury. Mosley was a full participant on Wednesday and Thursday and seemed to be in line to make his long-awaited return, but he was limited on Friday and is out again. Jamien Sherwood and Sam Eguavoen will continue to start in his place.
The Jets elevated running back/return specialist Kene Nwangwu from their practice squad and he will likely serve as one of the Jets' returners alongside Xavier Gipson. Rookie running back Isaiah Davis is still active, giving the Jets four running backs.
Full inactives list for Seahawks in Week 13
- CB Nehemiah Pritchett
- SAF A.J. Finley
- SAF Jerrick Reed II
- WR Dareke Young
- LB Trevis Gipson
- DE Mike Morris
- QB Jaren Hall
The Seahawks enter today's game with essentially a fully healthy roster. Seattle has seven inactives after elevating safety Ty Okada and quarterback Jaren Hall.
Hall is a curious elevation, as neither Geno Smith nor Sam Howell were listed on the injury report this week. Despite his elevation, Hall is inactive this week.
