FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — New York Jets coach Rex Ryan says cornerback Dee Milliner will play Sunday at San Diego after he missed the last two games with a quadriceps injury.

Milliner, the team’s top cornerback, has only played in one game this season after missing most of training camp and the opener with a high ankle sprain. It’s uncertain if Milliner will start against the Chargers, but is expected to see his first playing time since Week 2 at Green Bay.

Wide receiver David Nelson sat out practice Wednesday with a sprained left ankle that could sideline him at least a game.

Wide receiver Eric Decker (hamstring), right guard Willie Colon (knee), center Nick Mangold (shoulder) and rookie safety Calvin Pryor (bruised quadriceps) were all limited, but expected to play.
