JETS INJURY NEWS: Sheldon Richardson will return from his one-game suspension tonight. The Jets racked up a league-high seven sacks in their loss to the Bengals in Week 1 and now gets back one of its best defensive linemen. Wide receiver Quincy Enunwa was also upgraded to “full in Tuesday’s practice and isn’t on the team’s Week 2 injury report.
BILLS INJURY NEWS: A source told ESPN.com’s Adam Schefter that Sammy Watkins “wants to play and probably” will tonight against the Jets. Watkins is dealing with a foot injury and is listed as questionable after logging 84 percent of Buffalo’s Week 1 snaps. Charles Clay (knee) is also questionable for tonight, while left tackle Cordy Glenn (ankle) has been ruled out against the Jets.

OUR PREDICTION: Jets quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has a 47 percent completion percentage in 11 games against Rex Ryan-led defenses and has posted a 1-8 record as a starter. So while the injury news isn’t good on Buffalo’s front, Fitzpatrick could be the key to the Jets’ downfall tonight. In what should be a defensive struggle throughout, look for the Bills to play significantly better offensively and for Tyrod Taylor to rebound from a lackluster Week 1 performance at Baltimore.
