FLORHAM PARK, New Jersey (Ticker) -- New York Jets inside linebacker David Harris will miss Sunday's AFC East showdown against the Buffalo Bills, the team announced Saturday.

Harris did not travel with the Jets after being unable to practice all week with a strained groin that he suffered in the second quarter of last weekend's 28-24 victory over Kansas City.

A second-round pick out of Michigan in 2007, Harris leads the Jets in tackles with 45. He also has recorded one-half of a sack.

Veteran David Bowens is expected to start in place of Harris.

In other moves, the Jets activated linebacker Jason Trusnik from the physically unable to perform list and waived defensive lineman Kareem Brown.

Trusnik, who had been sidelined since last December, recorded six tackles on special teams in six games in 2007. Brown had not appeared in a game this season.
