Jets Get Bad News on $40 Million Man After Injury Scare
The Jets' $40 million addition lasted just six snaps before going down with an injury that will now sideline him for weeks.
The New York Jets experienced a setback after their Week 1 victory over the Tennessee Titans. Starting safety Minkah Fitzpatrick, who signed a $40 million extension with the team, suffered a groin injury and is expected to miss 2-3 weeks. Fitzpatrick, the 11th overall pick in 2018, had a notable NFL career with 690 total tackles and six interceptions. The Jets' defense managed to keep Tennessee's offense in check without Fitzpatrick, but the upcoming games against the Packers, Chicago, and Detroit will be challenging.
