New York Jets rookie wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. will return from injured reserve on Sunday against the New England Patriots after recovering from a high ankle sprain suffered in Week 1. Rookie tight end Kenyon Sadiq practiced fully following a concussion, providing a boost to New York's offense under head coach Aaron Glenn.

Running back Breece Hall and wide receiver Adonai Mitchell remain ruled out due to quadriceps and finger injuries, respectively.
