flgreen Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Quinton Coples back in positional drills September, 18, 2013 Sep 18 1:47 PM ET By Matt Ehalt | ESPNNewYork.com FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Jets outside linebacker Quinton Coples (ankle) participated in positional drills during the portion of practice open to the media Wednesday. CoplesThis activity is the most he's done since suffering a hairline fracture to his right ankle Aug. 17. He did work off to the side on Monday. Coples' return could be a good sign for Sunday's game against Buffalo, although we'll get a better idea of his status when the official injury report is released Thursday. Wide receiver Jeremy Kerley (concussion), who missed Thursday's game against the Patriots, was not present during the early portion of practice but eventually came out and did individual work off to the side. Kerley was at practice Monday in a red noncontact jersey. Defensive lineman Muhammad Wilkerson (ankle) was at practice and participating in the defensive lineman drills. Wilkerson injured his right ankle against the Patriots on Thursday but did individual work Monday. Tight end Kellen Winslow (knee) appeared to be practicing despite this being his usual day off. Winslow is on a program where he doesn't practice on Wednesdays to help him get through the week, but his schedule may have been altered due to the team practicing Monday.

JiFtheOracle Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Pretty fortunate to have the extra days this week. We need Kerley back, you'd assume 2 full weeks of rest would be enough for a return considering he returned to the field vs. the Bucs. The boner I get thinking about adding the Coples element to this defensive front is doctor visit worthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly dont care who the **** "starts". This front 7 is deep and a fresh rotation is what's keeping this team dominating in the 4th. And thats a good thing.

whodeawhodat Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Yep, starting the jets D this week in FF. We contain Manuel, we could pitch a single digit effort on Defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJoe12 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 What's the over/under on how many comments we'll see on the boards suggesting that McIntyre should retain his starting job over Coples? Depends on how many people are from the greater new england area around here.. Although I have liked the split between McIntyre and Barnes, they've done a good job complimenting one another.

The boner I get thinking about adding the Coples element to this defensive front is doctor visit worthy. More than 4 hours?? Ouch. I think what I'm most interested in seeing, is not how he looks as an OLB, but on obvious passing downs having him, Sheldon and Wilkerson on the line with Barnes coming from the outside. That's going to be absolutely filthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Doesn't matter. If he comes back all he does is hurt the Jets' chances of using another high pick on a QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
