FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) New York Jets wide receiver Eric Decker sat out his second straight practice with a shoulder injury, increasing the possibility that he could miss the game against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.

Decker did not even participate in stretching with the team Thursday, standing on the sideline in street clothes while his teammates practiced.

Decker injured the shoulder against Buffalo on Sept. 15, but it worsened last Sunday during the loss at Kansas City. The wide receiver said after the game that the shoulder was sore, but it appears it could be worse than that.

Coach Todd Bowles said Wednesday that Decker would probably have an MRI on the shoulder, but that still hadn't happened as of Thursday afternoon.

Bowles acknowledged that the injury is ''a concern,'' and added that he hopes it doesn't sideline Decker for multiple weeks.
