Jets head coach Robert Saleh said Wednesday before practice that WR Elijah Moore will do everything at practice and play on Sunday against the New England Patriots.

Moore was "back with the team" Monday after requesting a trade and missing the Week 7 game against the Denver Broncos. Saleh added that Moore and the Jets have spoken and are "all good."

"We've had talks, he's good," Saleh said. "We're all good and he's [going to] go out and do what does and see if we can get him the ball and make a few plays."

Saleh was asked if Moore is committed to the Jets despite his trade request, saying that the second-year receiver isn't "quitting on anybody."

"Yeah he is," Saleh said. "It's hard to explain. I don't think he's, you know when you talk to him, and again these are discussions you can have with him, he's been fine. Is there a frustration? Was there frustration? Is there frustration? There probably still is in terms of what he wants his production to be from a ball production standpoint.

"He's not quitting on anybody. He's not out there dogging it, out there sitting on his helmet. He's not skipping and holding out and faking injuries. He's not doing any of that, he just wants to contribute. The question of whether he's locked in in meetings and doing what he needs to do in practice, that's not in question to me. He's going to be fine."

Saleh added when asked if Moore still wants to be traded: "I don't know, I didn't ask him."

He went on to tell reporters that Moore's approach has not changed and he's always going to believe he can do more on the field.

"I think he's always going to have that mindset," Saleh said. "I think if he would have practiced last week, he would have practiced like he always does. He works his butt off, he plays his butt off, he always tries to do good. Last week happened. I don't think it's going to change his approach in terms of how hard he plays this game, he loves it, he just wants to contribute like I've said.

"Maybe he has some fresh legs, I don't know. From a mental standpoint and his approach to the game, I don't think it's going to change."
