New York Jets coach Robert Saleh ruled out two backups for Monday’s game with the San Francisco 49ers in advance of the final injury report for the contest.

Offensive lineman Wes Schweitzer and linebacker Zaire Barnes are listed as out for the game, leaving the Jets in a bit of pinch when it comes to depth at both positions.

Schweitzer, a nine-year veteran, has been on the injury report all week with a hand injury. He’s the backup to Alijah Vera-Tucker at right guard. Saleh said that Schweitzer was likely heading for injured reserve.

Xavier Newman is the backup at both left guard and center and could serve as the backup for Monday’s game at right guard, too.

Barnes, a second-year pro out of Western Michigan, is listed as the backup to Jamien Sherwood. He was added to the report on Friday with an ankle injury.

Losing Barnes could be a bit more problematic for the Jets, as he’s listed as one of two back-up linebackers on the depth chart. The only other backup linebacker is Chazz Surratt, who backs up both C.J. Mosley and Quincy Williams. 

The Jets have two linebackers on the practice squad — Sam Eguavoen and Marcelino McCrary-Ball.

Veteran offensive tackle Tyron Smith practiced again on Saturday as a full participant and he does not have a listed status for the game. He was limited during Thursday’s workout after he received a veteran’s day off. He returned for full practices on Friday and Saturday.

The remainder of the Jets’ injury report included cornerback Jarrick Bernard-Converse (groin), offensive lineman Max Mitchell (shoulder), offensive lineman Xavier Newman (shoulder) and wide receiver Mike Williams (knee). All four were full participants on Saturday and don’t have an injury designation. Williams is expected to be used judiciously as he is coming off an ACL injury last season.

49ers defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos (knee) and linebacker Dee Winters (ankle) are listed as out for Monday’s game. Neither practiced this week.

Safety Talanoa Hufanga (knee), who has been a limited participant all week, was listed as doubtful.

Running back Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) and Guard Aaron Banks (finger) are listed as questionable. McCaffrey was held out of most of training camp and the preseason but all signs point toward him playing on Monday.

San Francisco players with no game designation include running back Isaac Guerendo (groin), wide receiver Jauan Jennings (ankle), linebacker Tatum Bethune (ankle), guard Spencer Burford (hand) and punter Mitch Wishnowsky. All were full participants on Saturday.   

SAN FRANCISCO — She fired him and now he’s running to replace her in the general election.

San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins is facing a lone challenger Nov. 5 — former San Francisco prosecutor Ryan Khojasteh who said he can do a better job than his former boss.

“We’re proposing a better vision for public safety here in San Francisco that responsibly balances accountability with rehabilitation,” Khojasteh said.

Khojasteh said that, if elected, he would focus resources on going after violent and repeat offenders. For low-level offenses and first-time, non-violent offenders, he says he would likely offer treatment.

“If you commit a crime, we’re going to file charges. Now the question is what does justice look like? In many cases, it can be jail, it can be prison. In other cases — if it’s a mental illness issue or a substance abuse issue — we can get someone treatment that’s proven and make sure that they don’t commit future crimes because they actually get the help they need and are stabilized,” Khojasteh said.

Many people view Khojasteh as the progressive option to Jenkins. But he doesn’t like the label, especially after voters recalled the progressive D.A. Chesa Boudin. Boudin hired Khojasteh as a prosecutor in 2020.

“Just because you worked for somebody doesn’t mean you are that person. We should all be afforded the same opportunity to present our platforms and our vision for public safety,” Khojasteh said.

Jenkins says Khojasteh, who is 30 years old, lacks experience and is unqualified.

“I want people to understand the difference between my opponent and I. One, this is a person who is really Chesa Boudin 2.0 to be quite honest. It’s somebody who subscribes to the same belief system that the recalled D.A. put into place that got us into this mess that our city was in,” Jenkins said.

Jenkins said that was why she fired him and many of the Boudin hires right after she took office.

After the firings, Khojasteh went to work for Alameda County D.A. Pamela Price. He said he left the Alameda County job last month to focus on his campaign.

“San Franciscans can do both. We can hold people accountable. We can pursue incarceration when necessary and we can also get people the treatment and the help they desperately need to stop the revolving door in and out of county jail,” Khojasteh said.

Jenkins believes she has the better ideas to a balanced justice system. She thinks she deserves another term because she says the city is safer under her leadership.

She said she’s made retail and property crime a priority and is focused on crushing the open-air drug markets in the Tenderloin. She said she’s locked up many drug dealers and offered tough-love solutions to drug users.

“We finally have a district attorney in San Francisco that is being able to work collaboratively, not only with City Hall but with other law enforcement agencies,” Jenkins said. “We are making strides in reducing crime in the city and we need to be able to sustain that.”

The New York Jets will have to prove they’re as good as they look to be on paper during the season, but the roster can’t go unnoticed entering the campaign. Many around the industry believe the Jets have an opportunity to win a Super Bowl and if things go as planned, they’d be correct.

Not only are analysts saying New York can win it all, but players around the league are giving them more respect than ever. 

The Jets will play the  on Monday night in their first game of the year, a tough opening contest. The 49ers are arguably the best team in the NFL, and with a lot of change for New York, things won’t be easy. 

However, San Francisco players have shown respect to players on the Jets roster, indicating how tough it is to prepare for the team.

In years past, opposing defenses didn’t have to worry much about New York’s offense. They’ve typically been one of the worst in the NFL, and while every team prepares no matter who they’re playing, the Jets are now becoming a team that other squads need to worry about.

Charvarius Ward of the 49ers praised the offense, specifically star wide receiver Garrett Wilson. Wilson, who’s expected to be one of the top receivers in the NFL this season, has a big year in front of them.

He had 1,042 yards a season ago, with bad quarterback play. If Aaron Rodgers plays how he’s expected to, there’s a very good chance he could be looking at a 1,500-plus-yard year. 

Ward compared him to Rodgers’ long-time teammate, Davante Adams, perhaps the biggest compliment a receiver could get. Adams is an all-world talent.

“No. They have the same offensive coordinator that Rodgers had in Green Bay. I think it’s going to be a similar offense,” Ward said, according to Grant Cohn of Sports Illustrated. “Garrett Wilson might be the new Davante Adams. We’re watching some of his Packers tape and some of the tape from last year as well because they have the same play-caller.”

He added that he “thinks he’s a dog.”

Wilson should only continue to get more respect around the league once he puts up numbers compared to some of the other top wide receivers in football. If players around the league already think this highly of him, imagine what they’ll say when he has an all-time great throwing him the football.
