Jeff Smith, Brandin Echols Out; Lamarcus Joyner Questionable

By Phil Sullivan Posted On December 31, 2022

The Friday injury report shows that Jeff Smith and Brandin Echols will be out. That is good news for the Jets’ other players at wide receiver, as they should have their top 5 options. With Mike White returning and the game being a must-win, it is nice to have the ability to spread the ball around.

Robert Saleh said other than Smith and Echols being out, they feel good about everyone else. This means Lamarcus Joyner, who is listed as questionable, seems to be expected to play. Saleh chimed in on Joyner:

It’s good. Again, he’s an explosive player back there. He’s hair-trigger in a sense, and he’s 99 percent right when he does trigger. So, when that ball snaps, post-snap, he’s as good as anybody.

The full injury report for both the Jets and Seattle Seahawks appears below. You can read more about the upcoming game in the Jet Nation forums.
