FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -New York Jets wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery will not play against the Oakland Raiders on Sunday, missing his second straight game with an injured left hamstring. Coach Rex Ryan said Friday that wide receiver Brad Smith and cornerback Lito Sheppard, both nursing quadriceps injuries, also will not play. Ryan said he thought Cotchery had a chance to play this weekend, but doesn't want it to turn into a situation where the receiver is dealing with it every week. He added that he |

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -Rex Ryan benched two of his players for the New York Jets' next game because of their ``selfish'' actions in a scuffle with Buffalo's Derek Fine. Safety James Ihedigbo and linebacker Marques Murrell were each fined $5,000 by the NFL, and Ryan plans to make both players inactive and not travel for New York's game at Oakland on Sunday. Ryan said Thursday he wants his team to be ``the most physical'' in the NFL, but won't tolerate what Ihedigbo and Murrell did last Sunday. Ihed |

| Orchard Park, NY (MySportsbook) - Buffalo Bills quarterback Trent Edwards sat out practice for a second straight day Thursday, recuperating from a concussion suffered in last Sunday's win against the New York Jets.

Fitzpatrick took over for Edwards in the second quarter of Buffalo's 16-13 overtime triumph in Week 6 and ended 10-of-25 for 116 ya |
