Dolphins and Jets have none. … Jets coach Adam Gase faces Dolphins for first time since being fired by Miami after three seasons. … Dolphins have only six players still on active roster from Gase’s first season in Miami in 2016. … Dolphins QB Ryan Fitzpatrick went 13-14 as Jets starter and is 4-6 against them. … Jets QB Sam Darnold struggled in past two games, with one TD and seven INTs. Those performances came after he returned from three-game lay-off because of mononucleosis and was AFC offensive player of week after throwing for 338 yards and two TDs in win vs. Dallas. Dealing with sprained left thumb but should have no restrictions in game. … RB Le’Veon Bell had just eight carries, tying regular-season career low, for 23 yards in loss at Jacksonville. … TE Ryan Griffin had career-best two TD catches vs. Jaguars and added 2-point conversion catch, joining Tennessee’s Delanie Walker (2015) as only TEs in NFL history to accomplish feat. … LB C.J.
