Jets WR Davis having core muscle surgery, out for season

One catch in return Mims caught his only target for four yards in Sunday's 33-18 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Corey Davis exited early after aggravating his groin injury and Keelan Cole missed the game while on the reserve/COVID-19 list, but Mims still failed to make much of an impact. New York's second-round selection in the 2020 NFL Draft is starting to look like a bust, though a 16-game sample size is admittedly a small one. If Mims turns things around, it's unlikely to be this season, as he's yet to exceed two catches or 40 yards in a game in 2021.

Opportunity knocks in return Mims should see an expanded role in Sunday's game against the Eagles, Joey Chandler of NJ Advance Media reports.

Impact Mims' return from the reserve/COVID-19 list coincided with Keelan Cole's placement on the list, and Corey Davis (groin) is a game-time decision. Even if Davis suit up, he's not expected to play his usual complement of snaps, creating an opportunity for Mims to make some noise in his return. The 2020 second-round pick's career is off to an underwhelming start, but Mims could begin to turn the narrative around by making the most of this opportunity.

Activated from COVID list Mims has been activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Impact Mims, who has missed the Jets' last three games, is thus slated to return to practice Wednesday. With Keelan Cole on the reserve/COVID-19 list and expected to be out this weekend and Corey Davis day-to-day with a groin injury, Mims' return to the mix is well-timed in terms of bolstering the team's depth at wideout ahead of Week 13 action. In six contests this season, the 2020 second-rounder has caught seven of his 14 targets for 129 yards.

Jets Activate WR Denzel Mims; OL Chuma Edoga Returns to Practice Second-Year Wideout Has Missed Last 3 Games

DECEMBER 1, 2021 • NEWYORKJETS.COM

Ready to retake field Mims (illness) will return to practice Wednesday.

Impact Mims has missed the team's last three games while on the reserve/COVID-19 list. It appears that he'll be ready to retake the field for a Week 13 matchup against the Eagles, though he'll still need to be formally activated by the Jets. Mims has recorded seven receptions for 129 yards across six contests on the campaign.

Uncertain for Week 11 Coach Robert Saleh said Friday that Mims' availability for Sunday's game against the Dolphins is "in doubt," Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Mims requires one more negative COVID-19 test in order to clear the league's protocols, but the Jets could need to see him at practice before making him active on game day. The second-year pro missed Week 10 while on the COVID-19 list, and with all of Corey Davis, Elijah Moore, Jamison Crowder and Keelan Cole available, it's unclear how significant a role Mims will be asked to play even if he does suit up versus Miami.

Won't play Week 10 Coach Robert Saleh said Friday that Mims (illness) will not come off the reserve/COVID-19 list in time for Sunday's game against the Bills, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Saleh noted that Mims has symptoms, and that he will thus not be eligible to return to action until Week 11 versus the Dolphins, at the earliest. Through six appearances this season Mims has translated 14 targets into just seven catches for 129 yards, without a touchdown. On a brighter note for QB Mike White and the Jets, Corey Davis (hip) appears to be trending in the right direction.

Heads to COVID-19 list The Jets placed Mims on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday after he tested positive for the virus, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.

Impact According to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com, Mims is vaccinated, so he'll be eligible to rejoin the Jets when he's asymptomatic for at least 48 hours and has submitted consecutive negative tests at least 24 hours apart. That timeline gives him a shot to play Sunday against the Bills, but Mims could be in store for a smaller role in any case if top wideout Corey Davis (hip) is able to put an end to a two-game absence, as expected. Mims played 61 percent of the Jets' offensive snaps in last week's 45-30 loss to the Colts, finishing with one reception for 20 yards on five targets.

Jets place S Maye and TE Kroft on IR, WR Mims on COVID list

NOVEMBER 9, 2021 • Associated Press

Struggling with drops Mims caught one of five targets for 20 yards in Thursday's 45-30 loss to the Colts.

Impact Mims has been plagued by drops, and those struggles continued Thursday, most notably on one play that would have gone for a decent gain had Mims secured the catch. He tried to turn and run with the ball before catching it, and it fell to the ground incomplete. Even if Corey Davis (hip) misses further time, Mims won't make much of the extra playing time if he continues to drop the ball.

Not on Week 9 injury report Mims (finger) didn't appear on the Jets' initial Week 9 injury report released Monday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact After a thrilling 34-31 victory over the Bengals on Sunday, the Jets didn't hold a formal practice Monday, with the report instead being labeled as an estimate. Regardless, Mims' exclusion from the report indicates the Jets have no concern that the finger injury the wideout sustained against Cincinnati will prevent him from playing Thursday against the Colts. In the absence of No. 1 wideout Corey Davis (hip), Mims saw a slightly larger role Week 8, drawing three targets and recording two receptions for 30 yards.

NOVEMBER 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Hurst finger against Bengals Mims exited in the second half of Sunday's game against the Bengals due to a finger injury, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

Impact Mims caught two of three targets for 30 yards prior to getting hurt. The ball he didn't catch bounced off his chest in the end zone. The Jets have a short turnaround before Thursday's Week 9 game against the Colts, but if Mims heals up and Corey Davis (hip) doesn't, the second-year wideout out of Baylor would likely be in line for increased playing time once again.
