Jets Prepare for Steelers Showdown Sunday Night

The New York Jets are facing injury challenges ahead of their Week 7 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, with slot cornerback Michael Carter II ruled out and outside corner D.J. Reed listed as questionable due to injuries. Despite their 2-4 record, the Jets are bolstered by the recent addition of wide receiver Davante Adams, who is expected to play after overcoming a hamstring injury. Former NFL coach Tony Dungy highlighted that the Jets' offense, led by quarterback Aaron Rodgers, could pose significant problems for the Steelers' defense, which has struggled with communication issues. The Steelers, currently 4-2, are expected to start quarterback Russell Wilson for the first time this season as they look to improve their passing game. The game is set to kick off at 8:20 p.m. ET on Sunday Night Football. The last meeting between the teams saw the Jets defeat the Steelers 24-10 in October 2022.
