The Jets season has been short on good news in the first six weeks and their chances of turning that around against the Ravens this Sunday won’t be helped by the ankle injury suffered by defensive end Muhammad Wilkerson.
Wilkerson missed his second practice of the week on Friday due to an injury that Wilkerson said, via Kimberley Martin of Newsday, has been bothering him for the last couple of weeks. Wilkerson had 1.5 sacks in the season opener against the Bengals, but has been relatively quiet over the last five weeks.
Wilkerson is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game as a result of the ankle and it sounds like it might be a situation where time off is called for if he’s going to get past the injury once and for all.
There are also a pair of question marks on the other side of the ball. Left tackle Ryan Clady and center Nick Mangold are both listed as questionable, although both of them were able to practice on Friday.
