Jets S Lamarcus Joyner suffers torn tendon in arm (Report)

Awful news coming out of Florham Park as the Jets are 0-1 to begin the season.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports safety Lamarcus Joyner suffered a torn tendon in his arm after he left Sunday’s loss with an elbow injury. He needs surgery and is expected to be done for the season.

The Jets just inked Joyner to a one-year deal this past offseason; the veteran earned the start Sunday alongside fellow safety Marcus Maye.
