It depends.
Is he 90%? In that case yes, he should be out there. Do you think Moss was 100% last week? The dude could barely walk and he was still out there. There are plenty of guys in the playoffs that are playing hurt and probably wouldn't be playing if it was the regular season.
If Abraham is legitimately injured and the doctors say he shouldn't be playing I don't have a problem with that. But if he's well enough to play but he's protecting himself against blowing an opportunity for a big payday, that I have a problem with. That's putting himself first over the team.
The Jets are saying all the right things right now as well they should, but once the season is over I won't be surprised to see the Jets franchise him and look to deal him away.
