Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Cleared to return Week 6
Nwangwu (hamstring) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Broncos, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Nwangwu upgraded to full practice participation Friday to avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game in London. He's set to reclaim primary kickoff return duties on special teams in what will be Nwangwu's first action since Week 1.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Gets in limited session Thursday
Nwangwu (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Nwangwu's slowly making progress after sitting out practice Wednesday. He hasn't suited up for game action since getting injured in Week 1 against the Steelers. If Nwangwu's healthy enough to play Sunday against the Broncos, he would likely reprise his role as the Jets' primary kickoff returner.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Misses practice Wednesday
Nwangwu (hamstring) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
The Iowa State product missed the Jets' last four games due to a hamstring injury sustained in the Week 1 loss to the Steelers. Nwangwu will likely carry an injury designation into the weekend if he's unable to upgrade to a full session Thursday or Friday. If the 27-year-old is sidelined for the Week 6 matchup against the Broncos, Isaiah Davis is likely to operate as the Jets' top kick returner.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Could return in Week 6
Head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters Monday that Nwangwu (hamstring) will travel with the Jets to London, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Nwangwu has been sidelined for four consecutive games since sustaining a hamstring injury in the Jets' Week 1 loss to the Steelers. However, he'll travel with the team to London ahead of the Week 6 matchup against the Broncos, which is a good sign for his potential availability. The 27-year-old's practice participation throughout the week will likely provide the best indication of whether he can return for Sunday's contest.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Downgraded to out for Week 5
Nwangwu (hamstring) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
Nwangwu hasn't played since Week 1 and didn't practice this week, so it always seemed unlikely that he would face Dallas. Isaiah Davis figures to continue to fill in as an option on kickoff returns.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Deemed questionable
Nwangwu (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game versus Dallas, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Nwangwu hasn't played since Week 1 and didn't practice at all this week, making it seem more likely that he'll miss a fourth straight game. Isaiah Davis has been operating as the Jets' return man in Nwangwu's absence, though Davis will have a heightened offensive role going forward with Braelon Allen (knee) set to miss the next two-plus months.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: DNP on Thursday
Nwangwu (hamstring) did not participate in Thursday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Nwangwu has missed the Jets' last three games due to a hamstring injury. He has opened the week with consecutive DNPs, so he is trending towards being inactive for Sunday's game against Dallas unless he can practice in at least a limited capacity Friday.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Estimated to miss practice Wednesday
Nwangwu (hamstring) was estimated as a non-practice participant on Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Won't play vs. Miami
Nwangwu (hamstring) has been downgraded from doubtful to out for Monday's game against the Dolphins.
Nwangwu was a long shot to play in Monday's contest after drawing the doubtful tag, and he will indeed miss a third consecutive game due to a hamstring injury that he sustained in Week 1 against the Steelers. Isaiah Davis will continue to operate as the Jets' top return option on kickoffs in Nwangwu's absence.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Doubtful for Monday
Nwangwu (hamstring) is listed as doubtful ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Dolphins.
The Iowa State product downgraded from limited practice Thursday and Friday to a DNP on Saturday, suggesting he's trending in the wrong direction ahead of Monday night's contest. If Nwangwu misses his third consecutive game due to a hamstring issue, Isaiah Davis is expected to assume the Jets' top kick returner position.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Limited at practice
Nwangwu (hamstring) was a limited participant at practice Friday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Nwangwu has logged back-to-back limited practices to open the week as he nurses the hamstring injury that he suffered in Week 1 against Pittsburgh. The wide receiver has missed the last two games as a result of the injury, and if he can't go against the Dolphins on Monday Night Football, Isaiah Davis would once again stand to see an increase in workload on special teams.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Sidelined by hamstring Week 2
Nwangwu (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bills, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Nwangwu exited the Jets' season opener due to a hamstring injury and wasn't able to practice in any capacity leading up to the team's Week 2 home game against the Bills. With Nwangwu sidelined and Xavier Gipson having been waived earlier in the week, Arian Smith and the recently signed Isaiah Williams are the top candidates to return kickoffs Sunday.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Nwangwu (hamstring) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Nwangwu played just three snaps on special teams and logged 33 kick-return yards before departing in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Steelers due to a hamstring injury. The 2021 fourth-rounder will have two more opportunities to participate in practice and avoid an injury designation heading into the Jets' Week 2 AFC East clash against the Bills this Sunday. The recently signed Isaiah Williams would be the top candidate to join Arian Smith on kick returns if Nwangwu is unable to play.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Plays 24 snaps vs. Giants
Nwangwu (calf) turned six carries into 31 yards during the Jets' 31-12 preseason loss to the Giants on Saturday.
Nwangwu was able to suit up for Saturday's contest after recovering from a calf injury that he suffered during the Jets' preseason opener against the Packers. He played four snaps on special teams and 20 on offense, the latter of which was second most among Jets running backs behind Donovan Edwards (22). Nwangwu is in a battle with Edwards and Isaiah Davis (ankle) for the RB3 job behind Breece Hall and Braelon Allen, and Nwangwu's last opportunity to make his case for the Jets' 53-man roster is Friday against the Eagles.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Poised to play Saturday
Nwangwu (calf) is in line to play against the Giants in Saturday's preseason game, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.
Nwangwu has been nursing a calf injury that he suffered in the Jets' preseason opener against the Packers, but he's progressed enough in his recovery to play Saturday. With Isaiah Davis (ankle) ruled out, Nwangwu is in line to see the bulk of the backfield carries Saturday, assuming that Breece Hall and Braelon Allen are limited to the first couple of offensive series.

Jets' Kene Nwangwu: Calf injury not major
Nwangwu (calf) sustained an injury during Saturday's 30-10 preseason win over the Packers but is not believed to be dealing with anything major, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Nwangwu was involved Saturday, rushing five times for 10 yards while racking up 35 yards on his only kick return. The 2021 fourth-round pick is competing for a reserve backfield role as well as duties in the return game. It's encouraging that Nwangwu's injury doesn't appear serious, but it remains to be seen if he'll be cleared in time to next play in the preseason on Saturday, Aug. 16 versus the Giants.
