Jets activate LI's Mike Catapano

HOUSTON -- Quincy Enunwa's return to the field could bolster the Jets' offense, but the team likely will be without one of its top defensive stars Sunday when they face the Houston Texans.

On Saturday, the Jets (5-4) activated Enunwa, a second-year receiver to the active roster and signed Long Island's own, defensive Mike Catapano, off the practice squad. The promotion of Catapano, a Chaminade and Princeton alumnus, likely means defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson (hamstring) will be inactive Sunday against the Texans (4-5). Richardson did not practice all week and on Friday, head coach Todd Bowles said the third-year lineman would be a game-time decision.
