Eguavoen (hip) was a full participant at practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Eguavoen has missed the Jets' last two games due to a hip injury he sustained in Week 10 at Las Vegas, but it now appears he'll be able to return in Week 13. As long as C.J. Mosley and Quincy Williams are available, snaps for the Jets' other linebackers will likely continue to come few and far-between.

Eguavoen (hip) is inactive for Friday's game against the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
Eguavoen will sit out a second consecutive game, and his next opportunity to suit up will come Dec. 3 against the Falcons. The former Dolphins linebacker has played primarily on special teams for the Jets, notching just three tackles thus far in 2023.

Eguavoen (hip) was listed as a limited participant on Thursday's estimated practice report, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Eguavoen was unable to play in Week 11 and appears to be in danger of missing a second straight game. However, if he is able to talk the field against the Dolphins on Friday, it should be a boost to the Jets' special teams unit.

Eguavoen (hip) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bills, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Eguavoen didn't practice all week after sustaining a hip injury during the Jets' Week 10 loss to the Raiders, so it's no surprise that he'll be inactive this Sunday. The 30-year-old linebacker has played almost strictly on special teams for New York thus far, recording three total tackles on the year.

Eguavoen agreed to a one-year, $2 million deal with the Dolphins on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Eguavoen has appeared in every contest for the Dolphins since joining the squad in 2019. However, he's mostly operated on special teams the last two seasons after recording 42 tackles and 3.5 sacks across 630 defensive snaps during his rookie campaign. The former CFL player figures to be a regular contributor on special teams and provide depth defensively during the 2022 campaign.

Eguavoen will likely draw the start in place of Jerome Baker (knee) during Sunday's matchup against the Bills.
EDGE Analysis
Eguavoen played a season-high 53 snaps after Baker went down with a back injury during Week 7. The 28-year-old will likely see a similar workload against the Bills on Sunday.

The Dolphins activated Eguavoen off the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.

Eguavoen was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday after testing positive for the virus, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

The Dolphins placed Eguavoen on the reserve/COVID list Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Last year, Eguavoen was also placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list, but he only spent a few days inactive, which likely means he was just a close contact as opposed to testing positive. It remains to be seen how long his most recent trip will last. The Texas Tech product has appeared in all 16 games in each of his first two NFL seasons. However, his defensive snaps dropped dramatically in year two after he registered 42 tackles, 3.5 sacks and one fumble recovery as a rookie.
