Jets" Coples Is Sidelined Indefinitely The Jets lost a versatile and important piece of their defense when it was determined that outside linebacker Quinton Coples would be out indefinitely after sustaining a hairline fracture of his right ankle in Saturday night's preseason game against Jacksonville. Coples, scheduled to have what the team is calling a "medical procedure" Tuesday, will miss the remainder of the preseason. It is unclear when he will be ready to rejoin the team, but it is all but certain that he will miss at least the first few games of the regular season. In his absence, Antwan Barnes will move up the depth chart. The Jets will miss Coples's prowess as an interior pass rusher.
