Jets' Wilson Out 2 to 4 weeks with PCL Sprain; Jets Bring Back Flacco

 Zach Wilson will officially miss at least a month with a sprained posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) in his right knee, after suffering the injury in Sunday's 54-13 smackdown at the hands of the New England Patriots. 

Wilson will not require surgery. He will miss two to four weeks with an outside possibility of playing November 14 against Buffalo. 

In order to solidify their issue at quarterback, the Jets sent a conditional sixth round pick to the Philadelphia Eagles to re-acquire Joe Flacco. 

Why the Jets didn't bring back Flacco before the season started is beyond anyone's understanding when they needed a veteran quarterback in the building, but, hey here we are now.

 

Flacco started four games for the Jets last year, lost all four of them, but didn't play badly. He threw six touchdowns to just three interceptions in those starts. He gave the Jets a great shot to win games against New England and the LA Chargers last season. 

The Jets are looking at starting Mike White on Sunday against the Bengals. White has never started a game in his career, and only just played his first NFL game on Sunday. So obviously, the Jets needed a veteran (something they needed all season).
