There is now a very real chance Darrelle Revis won't be on the field when the Jets meet Odell Beckham and the Giants on Sunday.
"I don't think (Revis will play)" Bowles said. "He didn't do anything today, so it's more than likely he won't play."
Revis hasn't practiced since suffering the head injury on a tackle attempt, and has not attended team meetings this week.
It's not a great situation for the Jets, who hoped Revis could neutralize Beckham in what was to be one of the most hyped one-on-one showdowns of the season. To make matters worse, Marcus Williams -- Revis' backup -- missed his second practice this week with an MCL sprain suffered Sunday.
If Revis and Williams are both out, Antonio Cromartie could be tasked with covering Beckham. This has the potential to be a considerable mismatch. Slot corner Buster Skrine could also draw the assignment, though it is fair to assume Beckham will see plenty of double coverage in a pivotal game for both New York teams.
In other injury news:
- Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (concussion) practiced fully for the second consecutive day.
- Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert missed practice again on Thursday, per the team website. Eifert is questionable "at best" for Sunday's showdown with the Browns after suffering a neck stinger last weekend. Linebacker Vontaze Burfict was limited with a knee injury, while cornerback Adam Jones (foot) did not practice.
- Eagles coach Chip Kelly said running back Ryan Mathews is still in the concussion protocol and did not practice. Kelly also said quarterback Sam Bradford (shoulder) has done a nice job at practice the last two days but Thursday would be another big test for him.
- Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson and kicker Matt Prater are both expected to play on Thursday night against the Packers in Detroit, according to NFL Media's Albert Breer. Prater had a cold, which prompted Detroit to try out kickers, but he should be healthy enough to play Thursday.
