Jets RB Bilal Powell Has Fractured Toe, Expected To Play Vs Titans

Found December 13, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Bilal Powell,  Rex Ryan,  Shonn Greene
TEAMS: New York Jets
Jets coach Rex Ryan revealed Thursday running back Bilal Powell has a fractured toe, but he expects him to play Week 15 at Tennessee (Monday). Powell was held out of practice Thursday.

Powell has been solid lately as his splits backfield reps with Shonn Greene. Source: CBSSports Attached Thumbnails
