The Jets placed Mosley (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.
Mosley had missed the Jets' last five games due to a herniated disk in his neck. Though he appeared to be making progress after turning in two full practices last week and another one Wednesday, he downgraded to no participation Thursday and Friday. With the Jets unlikely to make the postseason, Mosley will likely end the 2024 season on injured reserve, even though he's eligible to be activated Week 18. Jamien Sherwood should continue to start at middle linebacker in place of Mosley, who could find himself as a cap casualty this offseason.

Jets' C.J. Mosley: Set to go on IR
Rotowire
Head coach Jeff Ulbrich announced Friday that Mosley will be placed on injured reserve due to a herniated disk in his neck, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Mosley had been sidelined for the Jets' last five games due to a neck injury. He appeared to be on track to play against the Dolphins on Sunday after logging a full practice Wednesday, but he was unable to see the field Thursday. With just five games left in the 2024 regular season and the Jets unlikely to make the playoffs at 3-9, Mosley's move to IR will effectively end his campaign. Jamien Sherwood will continue to start at middle linebacker in Mosley's absence.

Jets' C.J. Mosley: Not playing Sunday
Rotowire
Mosley (neck) is inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Seahawks, Randy Lange of the Jets' official site reports.
Mosley, who missed the four games prior to New York's Week 12 bye with the injury, was hoping to play in Week 13 after practicing in full Wednesday and Thursday, but he collided with running back Braelon Allen on a short-yardage play during a padded session Thursday and felt residual soreness, per Rich Cimini of ESPN.com. Cimini added that Mosley wants to err on the side of caution and sit at least another week. The starting middle linebacker has 17 tackles (13 solo) in the four games he has played this season.

Jets' C.J. Mosley: Viewed as game-time call
Rotowire
Mosley (neck) remains listed as questionable and is viewed as a game-time decision for Sunday's tilt with the Seahawks, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
While Mosley was listed as a full practice participant Wednesday and Thursday, he downgraded to limited activity Friday before taking a designation into the weekend. Though it's possible that his activity was limited Friday as a matter of caution, Mosley had missed each of the Jets' last four games before the team's Week 12 bye due to the neck issue. As such, the Jets may have preferred for Mosley to be a full practice participant throughout the week before clearing him for game action, though the door isn't closed on him suiting up Sunday. The Jets may put Mosley through a pregame workout before deciding on his status closer to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Jets' C.J. Mosley: Officially questionable for MNF
Rotowire
Mosley (toe) has been deemed questionable for Monday's Week 6 clash with the Bills, but he should be able to play in the contest, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Mosley has missed New York's past three games due to the toe issue, but he was able to log a trio of limited practice sessions this week. That gives him a good chance of returning Monday night, and if he does so, he'll presumably retake his starting role at linebacker. Prior to this season, Mosley hadn't missed a game since the 2021 campaign.

Jets' C.J. Mosley: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Mosley (toe) did not participate in Wednesday's practice session, Ethan Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.
Mosley injured his toe in Week 2 against the Titans, and the veteran linebacker wasn't able to return for Week 3 against the Patriots on Thursday. There's optimism that Mosley will be able to play against the Broncos in Week 4, but the 2014 first-round pick will need to practice in at least some capacity this week to give himself a shot at playing. If Mosley cannot play Sunday, then Jamien Sherwood will continue to fill in as both the starting middle linebacker and defensive signal-caller.

Jets' C.J. Mosley: Expected back for Week 4
Rotowire
Coach Robert Saleh is confident Mosley (toe) will be ready for the Jets' Week 4 game against the Broncos, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Jets' C.J. Mosley: Officially questionable for Week 3
Rotowire
Mosley (toe) did not practice Wednesday and is officially listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Patriots, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
Mosley boasts enough NFL experience to reliably play without practicing, so his status will likely come down to how well his sprained right big toe holds up during pregame warmups. If the veteran linebacker were to miss any time, Jamien Sherwood would likely step in as the Jets' signal-caller on defense.

Jets' C.J. Mosley: Hopeful to play Thursday
Rotowire
Head coach Robert Saleh said after Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans that he's hopeful that Mosley (toe) will be able to return for Thursday's game against the Patriots, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
Mosley left in the second quarter of Sunday's game with what was originally reported as a foot injury. He was carted back to the locker room, where additional tests revealed he sustained an injury to the big toe on his right foot. Mosley returned to the Jets' sideline, but he did not go back into Sunday's game. Mosley's presence will be sorely needed for Thursday's AFC East showdown with starting pass rusher Jermaine Johnson feared to have sustained a season-ending torn Achilles injury during Sunday's win.
