Jets defensive end Muhammad Wilkerson was back at practice Thursday after missing time due to ankle injury.

The Jets listed Wilkerson as a limited participant. He didn’t practice Thursday and missed last week’s game vs. the Ravens.

Wilkerson spent most of the offseason rehabbing the broken leg he suffered in the final game of the 2015 season and said last week that the ankle has been an issue for a few weeks. The Jets signed Wilkerson to a big-money extension last summer, and he’s been an impact player on their defensive line since being drafted in the first round in 2011.

Last week marked just the fourth game he’s missed in his six-year career.

The Jets also got wide receiver Brandon Marshall and Bilal Powell back as limited participants on Thursday after they sat out Wednesday’s practice.
