Lee Evans fantasy owners can rejoice.

Darrelle Revis won't be on the field Sunday as the Buffalo Bills take on the New York Jets, ESPN.com reports.

In Revis' absense on Sunday, Chad Henne was able to light up the Jets pass defense for 463 yards, including 166 to go-to receiver Brandon Marshall. While the Bills don't pose as pungent of a threat as the Dolphins do, they surely did show much more life this past week against New England with Ryan Fitzpatrick at the helm.

Revis is expected to be back for Week 5 for the Jets' next critical matchup — this time at home against the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night.

"As bad as we want him to play, we want him to play the whole season," said Rex Ryan.

Revis had been attempting to come back from a hamstring injury, but while he is making strides, he simply won't be ready in time.

Antonio Cromartie and rookie Kyle Wilson will start in Revis' absence.

2009 sack leader Calvin Pace, who has been recovering from foot surgery, is also progressing significantly, but Ryan did not seem optimistic about his chances of playing Sunday. Still, he didn't rule Pace out entirely.
