The Jets will be missing two key defensive starters for Sunday’s game against the Lions.
Defensive tackle Quinnen Williams, who leads the team with 11 sacks, was declared out for the game on Sunday morning. Williams injured his calf in last week’s loss to the Bills, but Jets coach Robert Saleh held out hope that Williams could play against Detroit. He labeled it as a “50/50” chance all week. The Jets will miss Williams, who is having a season that could earn him his first Pro Bowl this week.
Safety Lamarcus Joyner was also declared out for the game. Joyner is the only player who has played every defensive snap for the Jets this season. He leads the team with three interceptions. Joyner was not on the injury report until Saturday when he was listed with a hip injury.
The Lions have the No. 4 offense in the NFL and could challenge the Jets defense, which will now be missing two starters.
