Cole (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Randy Lange of the Jets' official site reports.
Considered a true game-time call heading into Sunday, Cole was ultimately ruled out after the Jets evaluated him during a pregame workout. With Cole's Jets debut delayed by the knee injury and Jamison Crowder (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Elijah Moore, Braxton Berrios and Denzel Mims should all be in line for enhanced snap and target counts behind No. 1 receiver Corey Davis.
