Rotowire
Stephens (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Stephens popped up with a neck injury on Friday's injury report, as it limited his practice participation Friday.

Jets' Jermaine Johnson: Upgrades to limited practice
Rotowire
Johnson (ankle) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Johnson raised his participation level Thursday after sitting out Wednesday's practice, which is an encouraging sign coupled with Wednesday's report from Cimini that head coach Aaron Glenn is optimistic about Johnson returning to action Sunday against the Broncos in London. Johnson hasn't suited up since Week 2 against the Bills, and the Jets' lack of edge depth behind him has been exposed during his absence.

Rotowire
Jets coach Aaron Glenn said Johnson (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, but the team is optimistic about his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Broncos in London, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Johnson is officially listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice report, per Cimini, but Glenn said Thursday's activity level is what will be key for determining the standout defensive end's status.

Jets' Quinnen Williams: Dealing with groin issue
Rotowire
Williams (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
The 2019 first-round pick from Alabama appears to have sustained a groin injury in the Jets' Week 5 loss to the Cowboys, despite playing 35 defensive snaps and recording three total tackles during the contest.

Head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters Wednesday that Carter (concussion) is likely out for Sunday's matchup against the Broncos, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Carter didn't travel with the Jets to London after sustaining a concussion in the team's Week 4 loss to the Dolphins, so it's no surprise he's expected to miss his second game in a row Sunday.

Jets' Brandon Stephens: Makes six stops in loss
Rotowire
Stephens recorded six tackles (five solo) and two passes defensed during Sunday's 37-22 loss versus the Cowboys.
It was another nice day in the box score in Week 5 for Stephens, who has now recorded at least six tackles in three straight games. He also now has four pass breakups on the season, putting him on pace for a career year in that category.

Jets' Francisco Mauigoa: Avoids serious injury
Rotowire
Head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters Monday that Mauigoa will be fine after sustaining a foot injury in Sunday's 37-22 loss to the Cowboys, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
The 2025 fifth-round pick from Miami played 62 total snaps (49 on defense, 13 on special teams) prior to sustaining his foot injury, recording four total tackles. Glenn's comments Monday suggest Mauigoa avoided a serious issue and will travel with the team for the Week 6 matchup against the Broncos in London. However, if the injury is too much to overcome by Sunday, Mykal Walker could see increased work on the Jets' first-team defense.

Jets' Jermaine Johnson: Traveling to London
Rotowire
Head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters Monday that Johnson (ankle) will travel with the Jets to London, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Johnson has missed three consecutive games after sustaining an ankle injury in the Jets' Week 2 loss to the Bills. However, traveling with the team for Sunday's matchup against the Broncos is an encouraging sign for his potential return. The 2022 first-round pick has struggled to stay healthy over the past two seasons, appearing in just four contests and recording 11 total tackles and one pass defended. His participation in practice throughout the week will likely serve as the best indication of whether he can return for the Week 6 affair in London.

Carter missed the Jets' Week 5 loss to the Cowboys due to a concussion and is now in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest. Glenn noted that Carter may travel to London later in the week and join the team, but it's generally not a positive sign that he didn't travel with them initially. If the Duke product is sidelined again in Week 6, Isaiah Oliver and Malachi Moore will likely see increased work in the Jets' secondary.
