The New York Jets will miss multiple starters for the matchup against the New England Patriots in Week 6.

Head coach Aaron Glenn provided an update on the injury report on Friday, October 16.

“Alright guys that will be out this game: AD Mitchell, Breece Hall, Dylan Parham, and Joseph Ossai will be out this game. This will be a big week going into next week for those men getting back on the field. We will see how that takes place,” Glenn said.

That is three starters on the offensive side of the ball and one starter on the defense.

What Happened With Mitchell?

This is the fourth straight game that Mitchell has missed because of the finger injury. If the Jets placed him on injured reserve when he first hurt it, Mitchell would have missed four games. By not placing him on IR, the Jets wasted a roster spot for the last month.

On Friday, coach Glenn was asked why the team didn’t place him on IR.

“We thought it was going to be a week-to-week injury, and it just happened to extend out a little bit more,” Glenn explained.

Glenn revealed earlier this week that Mitchell underwent a surgical procedure to address his finger issue.

This is a developing story and we’ll provide new details as they become available.
