WeissmanFLORHAM PARK, N.J. — A new addition, and very important player, popped up on the Jets' injury report Thursday. Leonard Williams did not practice because of a back issue.
Todd Bowles said Williams woke up with back pain Thursday morning, and he doesn’t know how serious it is.
“We’ll see,” Bowles said.
The Jets coach rarely, if ever, reveals much about a player’s health. But backs can be tricky. It would be a big loss if Williams can’t play Sunday against Andrew Luck and the Colts.
