Game News
Will McDonald generated a season-high 9 pressures on 33 pass rushes (27.3%), with 6 coming on 15 matchups against left tackle Laremy Tunsil. McDonald has now generated at least a 20%+ pressure rate in 6 games this season, the most such games in the NFL. #HOUvsNYJ | #JetUp pic.x.com/D0varGOE6x
If Nick Caserio doesn't trade for a left guard to replace Kenyon Green by the deadline on Tuesday, he's doing the Texans a disservice. I'm confident he will. Right now, Kenyon Green is Caserio's worst first-round pick.
Joe Mixon's last four games: 13 rushes, 102 yards, 1 TD 25 rushes, 115 yards, 2 TDs 25 rushes, 102 yards, 1 TD 24 rushes, 106 yards, 1 TD Incredible run for the #Texans RB
Ka'imi Fairbairn what a DOINK Only 27 yards out... pic.x.com/3GWrORavFE
Williams destroys Green again, and Stroud sacked for a 4-yard loss. Green has to come out of the game and be replaced by Kendrick Green. Kenyon is going to get Stroud killed.
The Insiders on @NFLGameDay with @TomPelissero and @judybattista: Both the #Jets and #Texans will be without starting WRs tonight; Nico Collins is eligible to return next week; Might Houston trade for a pass-catcher? pic.x.com/WuLG4ftWbo
Sauce Gardner beat by Robert Woods for a big gain. Actually, I don't know if you can even say beat. That was a freaking insane throw from Stroud. It looked like it might have been incomplete. Doesn't matter, though. Play was snapped before Ulbrich could throw a flag.
#texans QB C.J. Stroud on the two WRs, John Metchie III and Xavier Hutchinson, that will be called on to step up for Houston with Diggs done for the year and Nico Collins still out: "Metch and Hutch are two guys that, Metch is considered in Year three, but his rookie year was kind of last year with us. I believe he's playing really good ball. He made some big plays last game and is somebody who I just think needs his ops and he'll be able to do a lot. And I've been able to spend a bunch of time with him. One of my best friends on the team, as you guys know. And Hutch is the same way. Hutch is somebody who I came in with. I've been throwing routes on air with him for two years straight now. And I think our connection, you could see it last week, grow. And it'll continue to do better, so I'm excited to see those boys get the opportunities."
Horrendous pass protection by Tunsil on third down. Allowed McDonald to sack Stroud for an 11-yard loss. Fairbairn bails him out with a 54-yard FG. That's five sacks for the Jets. The pass pro is rotten. Stroud also missed an open Tank Dell on that series.
RT: Derek Stingley has allowed the 3rd-fewest yards per target among CBs in man coverage this season (5.6, min 15 targets) Stingley has allowed a 40.9% comp % in man cov, 2nd-lowest rate among outside cornerbacks trailing only his teammate Kamari Lassiter (35.3%).

Stefon Diggs in the aftermath of his torn ACL ...
@stefondiggs: They be grinding... I know they ready ?
On third down, Denico Autry with his second sack, a 9-yard loss. Another great signing by Nick Caserio.
RT: Tomorrow is going to be a very exciting watch to see what we get from John Metchie & Xavier Hutchinson with their opportunity I do believe they can step up & play roles without Diggs so tomorrow is the perfect opportunity to show that. https://t.co/0vsS5Yz7rv
Pitre against Adams?! What genius decided that was a good idea?!
@GregABedard: Is Jalen Pitre always that bad in coverage? He was brutal against the Patriots.
Texans get a huge break. Fourth-and-21 and Jets called for a personal foul, running into Tommy Townsend, for a first down at the Jets' 49.
With the Houston Texans on a short week, current injured players might be out again if not fully cleared.
That seems to be the case for third-year running back Dameon Pierce, who has been limited since his breakout game in Week 6 on the road against the New England Patriots.
Will Pierce suit up on “Thursday Night Football” when the Texans take on the New York Jets? Here’s what happened and his current status entering Thursday morning.
While Pierce played in Sunday’s win over the Indianapolis Colts, he was limited to just one carry for four yards. Against the Green Bay Packers in Week 7, only rushed for four yards on two attempts.
Dude.
@MySportsUpdate: HOLY COW. Garrett Wilson just made the catch of the season!!
It's officially a TD after review. This is OBJ-like. INSANITY!!!

Aaron Rodgers in the second half vs. the #Texans: - 15/18 - 179 yards - 3 TDs - 0 INTs - 147.7 passer rating The AR we all remember. pic.x.com/0lva7tNqi2
Jets WR Davante Adams is being evaluated for a concussion.

Haason Reddick generated 8 pressures on 32 pass rushes in his second game with the Jets, recording 6 across 21 matchups with Texans right tackle Tytus Howard. Reddick's 8 pressures are the 2nd-most by a Jets pass rusher in a game this season. #HOUvNYJ | #JetUp pic.x.com/lvui5YY6jZ
Ahead of tonight's game vs. the Texans:
@nyjets: buckle up, we made a lot of moves.
? Released TE Anthony Firkser
? Placed DT Leki Fotu & WR Allen Lazard on IR
? Signed OL Alec Lindstrom & K Riley Patterson to the active roster
? Elevated DB Kendall Sheffield & DB Jarious Monroe for the game
? Activated TE Kenny Yeboah off IR to the active roster
? Signed DE Takk McKinley to the practice squad
Kicker Riley Patterson is expected to be elevated from the practice squad and make his #Jets debut tonight vs. Houston.
@TomPelissero: New legs in New York: The #Jets are signing kickers Riley Patterson and Spencer Shrader to the practice squad, sources tell me and @MikeGarafolo.
They'll give Greg Zuerlein time to get his knee right. Patterson or Shrader will kick Thursday night.
That might be what Jeff Ulbrich is talking about regarding Sauce Gardner's tackling. #Jets
From @gmfb on the #Jets being down a few players tonight vs. the #Texans, though OT Morgan Moses has once again done everything he can to be ready despite an ongoing knee injury. pic.x.com/1VIKURkTZa
Jets WR Allen Lazard (chest) to be placed on IR; will miss at least four games, per @RapSheet pic.x.com/8ZCYTPDY9G
Quinnen Williams has four sacks in his last five quarters of football. He is feeling it. #Jets
The #Jets are doing this thing again where they don't stop the run and don't tackle. Also, Will McDonald is now hurt.
Jake Hanson is hurt. He has a hamstring injury and is OUT. They #Jets have Olu Fashanu playing G now. Max Mitchell is the other G with John Simpson out. It looks like Morgan Moses is telling Fashanu what to do before each snap. This is not ideal.
That might have been one of the best punts I've ever seen in person from Thomas Morstead. A 75-yard punt down to the two yard line. Wild!
That might have been a TD-saving tackle from Jamien Sherwood. Mixon looked to have quite the cutback lane.
Breece Hall then fumbles, but he's able to recover it. That on a play where it looked like a possible house call. Former #Jets LB Neville Hewitt punched it out.
The #Jets secondary right now CB: Brandin Echols NB: Michael Carter CB: Jarrick Bernard Converse S Isaiah Oliver S Jalen Mills Not how they drew it up.
Max Mitchell is at guard for the #Jets. John Simpson is hurt. New York down three guards now: AVT, Newman, Simpson.
Solomon Thomas sacked Stroud. Stroud is now hurt. Stroud got hurt (concussion) against the #Jets last year when they played, too.
Breece Hall is averaging 5.8 YPC and Braelon Allen 4.5. I would continue running the ball. #Jets
Kenny Yeboah is back. He just had a personal foul face mask. #Jets
The #Jets patchwork offensive line has had a really impressive second half. Two tackles (Max Mitchell, Olu Fashanu) playing the guard positions. Neither worked there at all during training camp.
That was a dangerous throw from CJ Stroud on third down. Jalen Mills nearly picked it off. Another stand for the #NYJ defense. Nice start for them.
New kicker in New York: Riley Patterson to be elevated from Jets' practice squad for "TNF" vs. Texans, per @TomPelissero nfl.com/news/nfl-news-... pic.x.com/G30XEOPp6J
Jets release TE Anthony Firkser, activate TE Kenny Yeboah in series of moves. nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal...
Jets receiver Allen Lazard was placed on IR with a chest injury, meaning the team is likely to retain Mike Williams instead of making him available via trade.
It’s spooky season and game day.
Why not combine both? A couple of Jets players have.
The Jets (2-6) and Texans (6-2) will do battle on “Thursday Night Football” at MetLife Stadium in Week 9. The battle happens to land on Halloween.
Jets players as Tony Adams, Ashtyn Davis, and more, decided to wear costumes to the stadium to celebrate the occasion.
A roundup of those can be found in the SNY clips below:
It’s-a me, Ashtyn Davis and Chazz Surratt! pic.twitter.com/KeyQw5VoE
