Xavier Newman - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Out of action Week 14 Newman has a groin injury and is inactive for Sunday's matchup versus Miami.

Impact Newman didn't appear on New York's injury report until Friday, when he was a limited practice participant. The groin injury that landed him a questionable tag heading into the weekend will ultimately prevent him from suiting up Sunday. Newman has filled a rotational role this season, logging 11 offensive snaps and 27 special-teams snaps over eight contests.

Impact Newman was placed on injured reserve following the Jets' Week 7 loss to the Steelers, during which he was placed on a spine board and carted off the field. Newman returned to practice Wednesday, and he finished the week off with consecutive full practices, though he's still listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Practice window opens Wednesday The Jets designated Newman (concussion) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Newman suffered a significant injury in Week 7 against the Steelers that required him to be placed on a spine board and carted off the field. He was able to travel back to New York with the team after being taken to a local Pittsburgh-area hospital and was placed on injured reserve Oct. 23. The 25-year-old offensive lineman was able to log a limited practice Wednesday, and in order to be able to return to games, he'll have to log full practices and clear the league's five-step concussion protocols.

Going to IR The Jets placed Newman (neck) on their injured reserve list Wednesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Impact Newman left Sunday's game at Pittsburgh early on a spine board, so it's not totally surprising that he'll have to miss the Jets' next four games. In his absence, Jake Hanson becomes the team's top bench piece on the interior of the offensive line.
