As reported by the New York Post, the Jets will be without the services of wide receiver Quincy Enunwa for the remainder of the season due to a neck injury. The sixth-year wideout briefly left Sunday's game in the first quarter, but later returned. He managed one reception for -4 yards.

Originally the Jets' sixth-round pick in 2014, Enunwa signed a four-year, $36 million contract in December.

Enunwa's latest setback comes after his return from an ankle injury that limited him to 11 games in 2018. The Nebraska alum has played in 41 career games (30 starts), amassing 119 receptions for 1,617 yards and 5 touchdowns.

Acquired in a trade with the New England Patriots on Tuesday, veteran wide receiver Demaryius Thomas will replace Enunwa in the starting lineup.
