New York Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley (hamstring) will officially miss Sunday’s Week 7 contest against the New England Patriots (1 p.m. ET, CBS). Mosley was listed as doubtful throughout the week and has been listed as one of the team’s six inactive players for the trip to Gillette Stadium.
With Mosley out, the Jets’ designated defensive communicator will be fifth-round rookie Jamien Sherwood.
Mosley is joined on the Jets’ inactive list by safety Adrian Colbert, running back Tevin Coleman, tight end Tyler Kroft, defensive tackle Jonathan Marshall, and wide receiver Jeff Smith.
The loss of Colbert in the defensive backfield is accompanied by the addition of Marcus Maye, who returns after missing two games with an ankle injury.
