FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -New York Jets safety Jim Leonhard is questionable for the team’s game at New England after being limited in practice with a broken right thumb.
Leonhard, injured in last Sunday’s loss to Jacksonville, returned to practice Friday and participated in individual drills as well as some team activities while wearing a cast on his hand.
Coach Rex Ryan said he’d consult with Leonhard and the team’s trainers to see how he feels leading up to the game Sunday. Eric Smith would get the start opposite Kerry Rhodes if Leonhard can’t play.
Ryan also ruled out linebacker Vernon Gholston for the second straight week with a hamstring injury. Gholston was injured in practice last Monday in the team’s first workout off the bye-week break.
