EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Buffalo Bills starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is inactive for the team’s regular-season finale against the New York Jets after missing practice all week with a right knee injury.
Brian Brohm is making his second NFL start for the Bills in Fitzpatrick’s place Sunday. Buffalo wide receivers Donald Jones (head) and David Nelson (ribs) also are inactive.
The Jets have already clinched a playoff spot and took the opportunity to rest several veterans, as expected, including running backs LaDainian Tomlinson and Shonn Greene, and cornerbacks Darrelle Revis and Antonio Cromartie.
Quarterback Mark Sanchez, dealing with a sore shoulder, is starting for the Jets, but is not expected to play long.
