New York Jets list edge rusher Joseph Ossai as week-to-week
Summary

The New York Jets head into their Week 1 matchup against the Tennessee Titans with uncertainty regarding the status of starting edge defender Joseph Ossai. Head coach Aaron Glenn described Ossai as week-to-week on Tuesday, September 8, following a foot injury sustained during the final preseason game. While Ossai remains listed as a starter on the team's official depth chart, reports suggest he is unlikely to play in the season opener. The team is considering whether to place him on injured reserve, a move that would sideline him for at least four games. Having signed a three-year, $34.5 million contract during the offseason, Ossai missed much of training camp due to physical health issues before returning briefly to the lineup. The Jets will release their official injury report ahead of the game later this week.
