The Jets might have to sign Freeman McNeil or Curtis Martin for Saturday’s game against Houston.
With Bilal Powell already lost for the season with a neck injury, Isaiah Crowell (toe), Trenton Cannon (toe) and Elijah McGuire (ankle) all sat out practice on Tuesday.
“I will be [worried] by Friday if they don’t practice,” Jets coach Todd Bowles said.
Crowell admitted Tuesday that he was in “excruciating” pain when he injured his toe during Sunday’s win against Buffalo; his foot was immobilized in a walking boot after practice.
Asked if his season might be over, Crowell replied: “I really don’t know, I’m gonna leave injuries for coach to answer.
