Jets quarterback Justin Fields (concussion) could return Monday vs. Dolphins
"Fields was practicing for the first time since suffering a concussion in the Jets' loss to Buffalo in Week 2, but was expected to be limited as he works through the injury. Fields, who was participating in non-contact individual drills in the session held indoors because of rainy weather, will have two more full practices on Friday and Saturday to prepare. An independent neurologist must determine if he can play against the Dolphins."
"Tyrod Taylor started in Fields' place last Sunday and went 26 of 36 for 197 yards and two touchdowns, but also had a pick-6 in the Jets' 29-27 loss at Tampa Bay. Fields had a standout debut for New York against Pittsburgh with a touchdown pass and two TD runs in a loss to Pittsburgh. But he struggled mightily against the Bills, going just 3 of 11 for 27 yards and running for 49 yards on five carries before leaving the game with the concussion."
Justin Fields practiced for the first time since suffering a concussion in the Week 2 loss to Buffalo while remaining in concussion protocol and progressing toward a potential Monday night start in Miami. He participated in non-contact individual drills indoors because of rainy weather and will have two more full practices; an independent neurologist must clear him. Coach Aaron Glenn said Fields would be the starter if cleared. Tyrod Taylor started in his place last Sunday, completing 26 of 36 for 197 yards with two touchdowns but also throwing a pick-six. The Jets' offense has been inconsistent, scoring late or sparingly in recent games.
