It's a wonderful feeling to be reading Wednesday injury reports during the NFL season. That's not to say I enjoy reading about injuries, just that it's great to have the new 2011 NFL season underway. The New York Jets must wait until Sunday night before the lights go on for real, but per league rules, Rex Ryan and the Jets staff had to file their first Wednesday injury report of the season. Let's take a look at it, as well as the one filed by Jason Garrett and the Dallas Cowboys, who of course, the Jets will be hosting at the Meadowlands on Sunday Night Football.
