Head coach Rex Ryan expects Gillislee to have a larger role Thursday against the Jets, WKBW's Joe Buscaglia reports.
This isn't exactly a bold statement, as Gillislee had just one catch (for a four-yard loss) and no carries in Sunday's 13-7 loss to the Ravens. Meanwhile, Reggie Bush lost four yards on three carries and failed to haul in his only target, serving as the top backup to LeSean McCoy, who had 70 yards and a touchdown on 20 touches (four receptions). Gillislee figures to get a few touches per game moving forward, but he'll still just be splitting backup work in an offense that largely revolves around McCoy.
