Mawae

Coach Herm Edwards says Mawae is “50-50" to play in week four when New York returns from it’s bye week.

His 157 straight games started streak is in jeopardy. The Jets offense has a tough match-up with Miami this week.

With the Jets in their bye week, it sounds like Mawae won’t miss any practice time.

There’s a chance Mawae and guard Pete Kendall could switch spots if Mawae is unable to hike the ball.

No fantasy impact, but that’s pretty damn amazing.

He broke the fourth metacarpal in his hand in the third quarter. It’s uncertain how long he’ll be out.

The Titans have already made their move, shifting Eugene Amano to center and installing Leroy Harris at left guard. If Mawae does end up re-signing, he’ll be a backup. Mawae’s conspiracy theory is that he hasn’t gotten any nibbles on the free agent market because he is the president of the NFLPA.

It would have to be a very serious injury to knock Mawae out. He’ll undergo x-rays Monday.

The Jets can hardly afford to lose offensive talent, much less their best player and team captain. Mawae had played 177 straight games, third most in the NFL behind Brett Favre and Will Shields. This just makes it less likely that Curtis Martin and the Jets offense will ever get on track this season.
