The New York Jets have not yet won a single game this season after losing to the Denver Broncos on Week 6, 11-13. To make things worse for the team, wide receiver Garrett Wilson, considered one of their best players, has also gotten injured as the team continue their slide. He addressed his injury in front of reporters during the post-game press conference regarding the extent of his injuries:
“I’m going to find out here soon and know how to move forward based on what I find out,” he told reporters.
He is expected to get an MRI on Monday to look at the extent of his injuries, with an update expected around Tuesday morning.
Earlier, Wilson grabbed a lot of attention after getting into a heated argument with Jets head coach Aaron Glenn.
What Happened to Garrett Wilson?
The Broncos vs. Jets game happened in London, with New York almost pulling off the victory. It ended even more badly for the team as they lost their top wide receiver, with Garrett Wilson suffering a hip injury. This happened late into the fourth quarter when he twisted his body awkwardly as he tried to catch a ball that he could not reach.
Wilson was limping after that play, leading many to believe it was a hip contusion. However, further examinations revealed it to be a knee injury, though doctors still have to run an MRI to see what extent does that injury have for the Jets star wide receiver.
Sports medicine physician and Injury Expertz CEO Jesse Morse pointed out that the best case scenario should be a mild sprain, though he also pointed out that this may be a torn meniscus which means he could be out for 3-4 weeks.
Is Garrett Wilson Playing Week 7?
For now, the New York Jets are awaiting the MRI results to see how injured Garrett Wilson really is. They may be taking the day-by-day approach when it comes to his availability once the MRI results are finally in, though the injury is considered to be not that serious.
For now, the Jets are just waiting to see what happens, with Wilson possibly getting to play Week 7 against the 3-3 Carolina Panthers. However, it should be noted that the team might just decide to sit their best wide receiver out as to prevent any further injuries.
Garrett Wilson Fantasy Outlook
With the Jets still awaiting the results of that MRI, fantasy managers should also do the same, as the wide receiver may be cleared to play on Week 7 and maybe even lead the team to their first victory of the season.
