EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — New York Jets wide receiver Eric Decker is active against the Denver Broncos and will start against his former team.

Decker was questionable with an ailing right hamstring that has bothered him since Week 2 and caused him to sit out last Sunday’s game at San Diego. Decker, who spent his first four seasons with Denver, will face the Broncos for the first time since signing with the Jets during the offseason.

Linebacker David Harris, the Jets’ leading tackler, is also active after being limited with a shoulder injury.

Wide receiver David Nelson (ankle) is sitting out, but cornerback Darrin Walls (knee) is playing.

Broncos running back Montee Ball (groin) had been ruled out earlier in the week and will be replaced in the starting lineup by Ronnie Hillman.
