Jets Regular Season

Kenrick Ellis inactive for season opener

Admin - September 11, 2011

In a rather surprising move the New York Jets declared rookie NT Kenrick Ellis inactive for tonight's game against the Dallas Cowboys. This means that the Gang Green are going into the game with only five defensive linemen. Ellis has been nursing a hamstring injury, so this could be the reason why he's out for tonight's game.

The remaining inactives are QB Kevin O'Connell, WR Logan Payne, S Andrew Sendejo, RB Bilal Powell, OL Caleb Schlauderaff, and OL Rob Turner. Both Payne and Turner are out with injuries.
