Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said at a Monday press conference that he will have an update on wide receiver Garrett Wilson’s knee injury on Wednesday, but a report about the wideout has shed some light on the severity of the injury.
Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports that an MRI showed that Wilson appeared to avoid a major knee injury. Wilson could still miss some time as a result of the injury, which he suffered in Sunday’s 13-11 loss to the Broncos in London.
Wilson has 36 catches for 395 yards and four touchdowns this season.
The Jets host the Panthers in Week 7 and they visit the Bengals in Week 8 before their Week 9 bye. Missing Wilson for those games would hurt their chances of winning for the first time this season, but the longer view might make it the wisest path to take.
