Sauce Gardner dealing with sore calf, status for Jets' preseason game against Giants up in the air

New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner sat out the team's joint practice with the Giants on Wednesday because of a sore calf.

Gardner participated in practice Tuesday at the Jets' facility in Florham Park but wasn't spotted during the teams' session at the Giants' facility Wednesday.

"Sauce wasn't out (there) today," coach Aaron Glenn said after practice. "He had some calf soreness. We'll continue to evaluate him and see exactly where he's at."

Gardner has been one of the Jets' best players since being drafted fourth overall out of Cincinnati in 2022.
