Jets' Aaron Glenn confirms Minkah Fitzpatrick sidelined for Packers game
The New York Jets ruled out safety Minkah Fitzpatrick for Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers. Coach Aaron Glenn announced Friday that Fitzpatrick, who is dealing with a groin injury, will sit out along with three other players. Fitzpatrick's absence is significant as the Jets face the Packers' strong passing offense. The Jets are looking to end an 18-game streak without an interception. Andre Cisco is expected to start in Fitzpatrick’s place.
Rookie cornerback D'Angelo Ponds is set to make his NFL debut. The Jets are still deciding on their wide receiver lineup for the game, with rookie Omar Cooper Jr. out with an ankle injury.
