Story summary

As of November 1, 2026, David Bailey, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft by the New York Jets, is inactive for their game against the Las Vegas Raiders due to a groin injury. Bailey had been dealing with lingering discomfort from the previous week's loss to the Miami Dolphins and did not practice all week. His absence affects a defense already struggling without defensive tackle T’Vondre Sweat (knee) and edge rusher Joseph Ossai (ankle), both placed on injured reserve or inactive. Bailey, who leads the Jets with 5½ sacks in his first seven NFL games, is joined by Pro Football Hall of Famer Brian Urlacher as one of only two players since 2000 to achieve this feat alongside significant tackles. The Raiders’ running back Ashton Jeanty has noted that the Jets' defense may struggle further due to injuries and morale issues.
