Jets’ Darrelle Revis shrugs off new hamstring bother

Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis was not on the field for the team’s final defensive series after tweaking his hamstring during Sunday’s 24-17 loss to the Eagles.

“I’ll be fine,” Revis said.

Revis missed practice last week with a groin injury, but this is apparently something different. Revis had a hamstring injury in 2010, too. Revis repeatedly said it would not be an issue and seemed to be moving fine in the postgame locker room. The Jets face the Dolphins on Sunday in London.

Revis did not appear to be affected by any injury during the game, as he shut down Eagles rookie Nelson Agholor. But he took no satisfaction in his own performance after the loss.

“They had a better game plan,” Revis said. “They outplayed us. They were a step faster. You saw it from the jump, that first series coming out. They drove down the field and scored. They were just a step faster today.”


The Jets lost right guard Willie Colon to a right knee injury for the entire second half. Brian Winters played in his place. Colon has been dealing with knee issues for the past few years. It appeared he aggravated the injury late in the first half on a play Ryan Fitzpatrick was sacked on.

Jets coach Todd Bowles had no idea how serious the injury was after the game.


Tight end Jeff Cumberland left the game in the second half with a head injury. Cumberland had two catches for 10 yards, his first receptions of the season.


Geno Smith was active for the first time since breaking his jaw last month. He was the backup to Fitzpatrick. Rookie Bryce Petty also was active. … Fitzpatrick’s 58 attempts tied for the eighth most in franchise history and are the most since Mark Sanchez attempted 59 against the Giants on Dec. 24, 2011.


Wide receiver Eric Decker was inactive, and said he hopes to return next week against the Dolphins. … First-round pick Leonard Williams recorded his first sack, a half-sack of Sam Bradford with Muhammad Wilkerson.


The Jets announced they will induct Emerson Boozer and Matt Snell into their Ring of Honor at halftime of the Nov. 29 game against the Dolphins. Boozer and Snell teamed up to form the backfield that helped the Jets win Super Bowl III.
