New York Jets wide receiver Eric Decker avoided a season-ending knee injury, an MRI confirmed, but his status for Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles is uncertain.

Decker is day-to-day with a sprained knee, coach Todd Bowles said Tuesday. About 16 hours earlier, in the Jets' locker room at Lucas Oil Stadium, Decker indicated the preliminary diagnosis was a PCL injury to his left knee.

It happened early in the fourth quarter of the Jets' 20-7 victory over the Indianapolis Colts. Decker said postgame tests indicated he wouldn't require surgery. Bowles refused to tip his hand on whether he expects Decker to play this week.

"I don't know; I'm going to have to see how he's doing later in the week," Bowles said. "If he's not moving well, obviously he's not going to play. But time will tell. He's got a little bit of time. I'm hopeful, but it's not out of the realm of possibility he won't play."

Decker played one of his best games as a Jet, finishing with eight catches for 97 yards and a touchdown -- all in the first half. He and Brandon Marshall have formed a formidable tandem, combining for four touchdowns in the Jets' 2-0 start.

"I'm going to be smart about it this time," said Decker, who played through a serious hamstring injury last season. "I'm not going to rush myself. Obviously, I want to be out there as soon as possible, but we're going to take the proper steps."

Suddenly, the Jets are banged up at receiver, as No. 3 wideout Chris Owusu is battling an undisclosed leg injury. They could choose to activate rookie Devin Smith, who has been a healthy scratch the last two weeks. The second-round pick missed the preseason due to fractured ribs and a partially punctured lung. He could miss two weeks, Bowles told ESPN Radio.
