New York Jets: Injury bug bites team again; Chris Herndon, Brian Winters

Even when the New York Jets win, they can’t win.

On Monday afternoon during the weekly Adam Gase conference call, the team revealed another troubling injury report.

Promising second-year tight end Chris Herndon returned to the field for the first time in 2019. He finished the game with one reception for seven yards on two targets.

Sadly that may be the last time Jets fans see him this season. He suffered a fractured rib and is “out for an extended period of time.”

According to some initial research, broken ribs can take “about six weeks” to heal on their own.
