TRIO GRANDE

The Jets featured three running backs in Sunday’s loss to the Raiders: Matt Forte carried nine times for 53 yards; Bilal Powell carried six times for 13 yards; rookie Elijah McGuire made his debut by carrying six times for 29 yards.

Offensive coordinator John Morton wants to maintain a similar rotation.

“We did a good job with the backs, all of them playing. That’s the way we want to do things,” Morton said. “Guys have specific plays, specific roles and that was another encouraging thing that we saw: Eli coming in and doing some good things, Matt doing some good things, even Powell. If we can just keep that going and play by committee, that's a good thing.” … Two days after cutting Kalif Raymond, the Jets re-signed the returner and receiver to their practice squad.
