Bad news Jets fans. Our @JasonLaCanfora is reporting that Kris Jenkins tore his ACL again in that same knee. Out for the season.
A very sad ending to the big man's career. I doubt he'll come back from this one, he had to be talked into coming back last year if I recall correctly.
Yup. There's no way he's gonna attempt another comeback when he was already on the fence about it. Kris Jenkins experiement is over.
It's so frustrating, he couldn't even make it through the 1st qtr of the 1st game. He's such a beast and it's impossible to truly replace him. Oh well, good luck in the rehab Kris and get that weight down so you can live a long life.
The Jets are fine on defense. They still have one of the best run D's in the game even without Jenkins. If Pouha goes down we're screwed.
Who do we even look to for a replacement? Martin Tevaseu is sitting on the practice squad, but we're going to go into the rest of the season with our primary rotational backup as a first year UDFA? Unlikely.
