The Jets placed Fotu (knee) on injured reserve Thursday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports. Fotu will be placed on injured reserve for a second time this season, this time due to a knee injury. He missed the first five games of the regular season due to a hamstring injury he sustained in training camp, but he was able to suit up for Weeks 6 and 7 and logged three tackles (one solo) over that span. His placement on IR means Fotu will have to miss at least the next four regular-season games, and the earliest he can return will be Week 14 against the Dolphins on Sunday, Dec. 8. In Fotu's absence, Leonard Taylor and Solomon Thomas will serve as the Jets' rotational defensive tackles behind starters Javon Kinlaw and Quinnen Williams.

Fotu (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Texans. It's not surprising that Fotu will be sidelined Thursday night, as the 26-year-old defensive tackle didn't practice all week after missing the Jets' Week 8 loss to the Patriots due to a knee injury. Solomon Thomas is expected to see additional reps as a rotational defensive tackle with Fotu missing Week 9.

Fotu (knee) has been deemed out for Sunday's matchup against the Patriots, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports. Fotu began the campaign on IR due to a hamstring injury but was able to return ahead of Week 6. However, the defensive lineman didn't practice at all this week, and he'll miss his sixth game of the season this Sunday. The Jets have a quick turnaround for Week 9 with a Thursday night game against Houston, so Fotu could be in danger of missing that contest as well.

Fotu (hamstring) has been activated to the Jets' active roster ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Bills. Fotu has yet to play this season after sustaining a hamstring injury in late August, but it now appears he's moved past the issue enough to suit up Monday night. Expect Fotu to serve as a rotational defensive tackle against the Bills.

Fotu (hamstring) could return for Monday's Week 6 matchup against the Bills, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports. Fotu has yet to play this season after being placed on injured reserve ahead of Week 1. The Utah product returned to practice last week when he was designated to return from IR and appears to be trending in the right direction to make his season debut in Week 6 against Buffalo.
