FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Ryan Fitzpatrick is healthy again and ready to roll.The New York Jets quarterback was a full participant for the first time since spraining his left knee at Miami on Nov. 6. Coach Todd Bowles announced Monday that Fitzpatrick would start against New England on Sunday.I just think with the injury, every day you get better and every day I feel more comfortable and a little bit more normal, Fitzpatrick said Wednesday.It was good to have the bye and it was good to have the extra day of practice this week. Just going forward as if its a normal week right now.Fitzpatrick was limited during the week of practice after the injury, and Bryce Petty started in his place against Los Angeles on Nov. 13.Fitzpatrick said he would play with a brace on his knee, but Bowles didnt think the quarterback appeared at all hobbled during practice.No, he looked normal, Bowles said.Meanwhile, center Nick Mangold sat out again with a sprained right ankle and appears unlikely to play against the Patriots.Mangold has been sidelined for three games, but Bowles says Wednesday that the center is out of his walking boot.Bowles says placing Mangold on season-ending injured reserve isnt yet being discussed, but the coach also didnt rule it out.Its something me and (general manager) Mike (Maccagnan) will talk about going forward, Bowles said, adding that surgery also has not yet been discussed.Mangold appeared to be close to returning a few weeks ago, but said he was overaggressive with his rehab and had a setback that put him back in a walking boot.Wesley Johnson has been solid while filling in for Mangold, and will likely get the call again Sunday.For me, if youre not practicing, youre not improving, Bowles said when asked if Mangold is getting better.I havent seen him run yet, so Id have to say no. Hes not in a boot, but at the same time, hes not doing anything that I see.Defensive tackle Steve McLendon (hamstring) and cornerbacks Marcus Williams (ankle) and Nick Marshall (ankle) also didnt practice. Wide receiver Quincy Enunwa (neck) was limited, as were linebackers Bruce Carter (quadriceps) and Josh Martin (concussion).---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Wholesale Jerseys Outlet .

One game after a miserable showing in Oklahoma City, Gay tied a career high with 41 points and the Sacramento Kings cruised to a 114-97 victory at the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night. Christian Horner has backed Daniel Ricciardo to respond positively to Max Verstappens recent form and believes the two men are getting the best from each other.Verstappen ended Ricciardos inter-team domination of qualifying at the British Grand Prix before a strong drive to second position, which included a thrilling battle with championship leader Nico Rosberg. It gave Verstappen his third Driver of the Day accolade since his switch to Red Bull -- a period of time which has seen Ricciardo struggle by comparison, though he lost wins in Spain and Monaco through strategy and a botched pit stop.During the Silverstone weekend Ricciardo admitted the atmosphere at the team has changed since Verstappen replaced Daniil Kvyat and said it is bringing out the best in both of us. Horner agrees with that opinion and thinks Ricciardo is going to come back strongly.I think Daniel is a class driver and he has demonstrated already this year that he is at the top of his game, Horner said. No teammate likes being the second of the cars to finish and I am sure he will respond positively. But it is a positive thing in the team. There is no animosity or anything. It is justt two guys going for it and going flat-out.ddddddddddddIt is very healthy for us.When asked if the dynamic at the team had shifted since Verstappens arrival, Horner said: Well, not really. Obviously we have got two very strong drivers in the cars and they are pushing each other hard, which is great to see and there is a confidence in the team that you can see is growing.Horner has praised Ricciardos reaction to Verstappens arrival and points out he has had the lions share of bad luck in recent races.I think Daniel is dealing with it very well. He got a little bit unlucky with the VSC period [at Silverstone]. That cost him probably about 10 seconds and allowed Perez to effectively get a free stop ahead of him. But that is just the run of the green. You cant anticipate when there is going to be a VSC.He then cleared Perez and was slowly catching on that group, but the damage was done to his race. He is going to have a couple of Sundays come up where I am sure everything will fall his way and it will be swings and roundabouts. ' ' '
