San Diego Chargers tight end Antonio Gates is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the New York Jets.
Gates has not played since Week 2 because of a right foot injury, but was a full participant in practice on Friday after taking advantage of San Diego's bye week.
The seven-time Pro Bowler has eight catches for 74 yards this season for the Chargers (4-1), who lead the AFC West by a half game over the Oakland Raiders.
Additionally, wide receiver Vincent Jackson is listed as probable for Sunday with a lingering hamstring injury.
Jackson was also a full participant in Friday's practice.
He has recently become quarterback Philip Rivers' main target because of Gates' absence and has 23 receptions for 408 yards and three touchdowns through five games this season.
