Kroft (back) won't practice Wednesday, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.
Even after the team's Week 6 be, Kroft isn't ready to practice, which clouds the tight end's status for Sunday's game against the Patriots. If Kroft remains out this weekend, Ryan Griffin would serve as the Jets' clear top pass-catching tight end. While Kroft was sidelined Week 5 versus Atlanta, Griffin logged a 91 percent snap share and recorded just one catch on two targets for four yards.
