Two New York Jets Stars Cleared For Major Return In Week 8

 

After a major upset win in Week 6, the New York Jets took to their Week 7 bye sitting at 3-3 even without Aaron Rodgers, but in their unlikely win over the Philadelphia Eagles, they were also missing two star cornerbacks in D.J. Reed and Sauce Gardner.

With the extra week of rest, it appears that the team have now got lucky, as Head Coach Robert Saleh has revealed that both have cleared concussion protocol, and are set for a return in the major New York vs. New York showdown this week against the Giants.

With the toughest part of their schedule out of the way, the Jets have a genuine chance to make a playoff push in the AFC, even with Zach Wilson at Quarterback, and now, with the defence playing at an elite level and their two biggest stars back, this could make for a massive weekend in New York.
