"It was an ominous sight: S Kerry Rhodes, his right knee heavily wrapped, limped into the locker room and limped out a minute later, not talking to reporters.
Rhodes collided with a teammate Thursday in practice and was added to the Jets' injury report for the AFC Championship Game Sunday against the Colts. Rex Ryan said Rhodes "bumped" his knee, claiming he will be fine for the game even though he didn't finish practice.
Rhodes is a vital piece on defense because he could be assigned to cover TE Dallas Clark. In the last meeting, S Eric Smith drew the assignment for much of the game, in a three-safety nickel defense, but Rhodes did a good job last week on Chargers TE Antonio Gates.
Nickel back Donald Strickland (broken finger) also was added to the injury report, but he participated in a full practice."
