Jets Coach on Sanchez Injury: “It Might Just Be a Sprain”

Mark Sanchez

Jets head coach Rex Ryan believes the Mark Sanchez’s knee injury might just be a sprain.

“We’ll see how it is. I’m optimistic,” Ryan said in a post-game press conference. “I think it might just be a sprain, but we’ll know a lot more later.”

Despite the optimism, the Jets are going to be cautious with injury.

“We’ll probably have him-just for precautionary measures-get an MRI on it,” Ryan said. “But we feel pretty confident that it’s just a sprain.”

The Jets now have 10 days off before facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Florida.
