The New York Jets have activated third-string quarterback Adrian Martinez for Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Martinez will be the emergency quarterback behind starter Aaron Rodgers and backup Tyrod Taylor.
Rodgers, who is 40 years old, had some soreness in his left knee after last week’s loss to the Denver Broncos but said he felt “pretty good” on Friday.
As expected, Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley will miss his third game in a row due to a hurt toe. He was limited in practice this week and was listed as doubtful for the game.
Mosley injured his right big toe during the first half of New York’s 24-17 win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 2.
Receiver Malachi Corley will also not play, along with T Morgan Moses, OL Max Mitchell, RB Israel Abanikanda, and CB Jarrick Bernard-Converse.
For the Vikings, running back Myles Gaskin and safety Bobby McCain have been moved up to the active roster. Their inactives include WR Trishton Jackson, QB Brett Rypien, CR Fabian Moreau, CB Dwight McGlothern, DL Jalen Redmond, and T Walter Rouse.
