The New York Jets announced that four players, including All-Pro Kene Nwangwu, will not participate in their Week 2 game against the Green Bay Packers at MetLife Stadium. Head coach Aaron Glenn confirmed the injuries and noted that Nwangwu, who missed Week 1 due to back issues, joins Omar Cooper Jr. and Joseph Ossai on the sidelines. Minkah Fitzpatrick's injury is seen as particularly disappointing, with analysts suggesting he may return by Week 4. In contrast, D’Angelo Ponds will make his debut after recovering from a calf injury sustained during training camp.
