Gardner (hamstring) was listed as a DNP on Wednesday's estimated injury report, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Gardner suffered a hamstring injury in the third quarter of the Jets' Week 16 loss to the Rams. Wednesday's report is an estimate as the Jets didn't practice, so the severity of his injury isn't clear.

Gardner (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Rams. Gardner injured his hamstring early in the third quarter of Sunday's game. Brandin Echols will likely take over at outside corner opposite D.J. Reed for as long as Gardner is sidelined.
Gardner logged five tackles (two solo), two pass deflections and an interception during the Jets' win Sunday versus the Jaguars. Gardner picked off Mac Jones with under a minute left to clinch the victory for the Jets, his first interception since 2022. The 24-year-old also racked up five tackles, which match his season-high total set back during the team's Week 5 loss versus the Broncos.
Gardner (hamstring) was listed as a full participant at Wednesday's walkthrough practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Gardner was sidelined for the first time this season in the Jets' Week 14 loss to the Dolphins due to a hamstring injury. However, Wednesday's full estimation suggests the All-Pro corner has already moved past the issue. With Gardner back at full health, he's expected to serve as one of the Jets' defensive leaders in a Week 15 matchup against the Jaguars.
Gardner (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Dolphins. Gardner was tagged as doubtful for Week 14 after being held out of practice all week due to a hamstring injury he suffered against the Seahawks in Week 13. With Gardner inactive Sunday, Brandin Echols will fill in as the Jets' second starting outside cornerback opposite D.J. Reed.
Gardner (hamstring) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Gardner is expected to sit out Week 14 after injuring his hamstring in this past Sunday's loss to the Seahawks. While the two-time All-Pro cornerback has had a disappointing third NFL season by his lofty standards, Gardner's absence will still leave New York's secondary more vulnerable against speedy Dolphins wideouts Tyreek Hill (wrist) and Jaylen Waddle.
Gardner (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Gardner seems unlikely to play Sunday, as Cimini notes that head coach Jeff Ulbrich was not optimistic about the 24-year-old's chances. Considering the nature of hamstring injuries, it's like the Jets will be cautious with their superstar corner; however, greater clarity on his status will likely come closer to their matchup with the Dolphins on Sunday.
Gardner's status for the week ahead is uncertain after suffering a hamstring injury in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Gardner appears in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Dolphins, although a firmer stance on his availability likely won't come until later in the week. In the meantime, his practice status in the days ahead will be worth monitoring.
