TJs don't have a mass airflow sensor, they use a manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor. Instead of measuring actual airflow the MAP sensor measures the pressure in the intake manifold to intuit the amount of air flowing into the engine.
As far as unplugging it, I've never tried. I assume it would go an open loop baseline failsafe and illuminate the MIL. Might still run enough to get you home. MAPs are pretty resilient and don't fail too often.
What are you trying to figure out?
