The New York Jets are braced for the worst following Mekhi Becton‘s MRI on Monday afternoon.
Becton came up limping heavily during practice and had to be helped off the field. Head coach Robert Saleh and general manager Joe Douglas were seen in deep conversation moments later.
After practice ended on Monday, Saleh sounded optimistic that Becton had avoided a serious injury. “As of now, it doesn’t seem like it’s a big deal, but knock on wood,” the coach responded to a question about Becton, proceeding to do just that.
