Chrebet, injured in the Jets'' victory over Buffalo two weeks ago, had little to say to reporters after practice yesterday.
"I''ve got no status," he said when asked about tomorrow''s game. Then, when asked how he felt physically, Chrebet replied, "I can''t even talk about that."

Edwards said some of the decision on whether to activate Chrebet will be based on the player''s word, and some on Edwards'' observations on how he looks in warmups.
