Florham Park – Jets rookie Jalen Saunders was at practice today with no red jersey on, which means he wasn’t limited, and was practicing full.
This is good news for the Jets. Saunders is going to be their punt returner, and he needs more game reps to get ready for the regular season. He should get plenty of reps on Thursday night, in the Jets’ preseason finale, at Philadelphia.
Saunders had a “medical event” on August 15, near the Jets’ facility in Florham Park, NJ, that caused him to drive his car off the road. He was held out of practices and games since that accident, until he returned to practice on a limited basis yesterday.
It’s still unclear what caused the “medical event.”
