Limited showing Thursday Ficken (groin) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice.

Upgrades to limited activity Ficken (groin) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice, Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports.
Impact Ficken's activity marks a step forward from Wednesday, when he was a non-participant. The kicker is working back from a right groin injury that sidelined him for the Week 7 loss to the Bills, resulting in the Jets calling up Sergio Castillo from the practice squad to replace him. The Jets will reassess Ficken following their final practice of Week 8 on Friday before gauging his availability for Sunday's game in Kansas City.

Misses practice Wednesday Ficken (groin) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Manish Mehta of New York Daily News reports.
Impact Ficken's trending in the wrong direction to begin the practice week. If he's unable to get back onto the field by Friday, Sergio Castillo likely will be elevated from the practice squad once again to serve as the Jets' kicker. Castillo made both of his kicks in the Week 7 loss to the Bills.

Being evaluated Monday Ficken will have his groin injury evaluated Monday to see if he can return Week 8 against the Chiefs, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Impact Ficken missed this past Sunday's loss to the Bills, and former CFL star Sergio Castillo handled the starting kicker duties. Castillo was perfect on a pair of chip shots but wasn't seriously tested in the divisional tilt. There's a chance Ficken will return this week against the Chiefs, but it'll depend on how his groin recovers.
