LT and McKnight Both Hurt

[QUOTE]
LANDOVER, Md. -- Jets running back and kick returner Joe McKnight said he suffered a hyperextended right elbow late in the third quarter of the Jets' 34-19 win against the Redskins.
McKnight did not return to the game after he was injured on a 2-yard catch. He said he will have an MRI Monday and is not sure about his availability moving forward. McKnight's elbow was swollen and he was unable to bend it in the locker room after the game.
LaDainian Tomlinson, who missed the past two games with a left MCL injury, re-aggravated it in the first quarter but was able to return to the game. He did not have any tests at the stadium.
[/QUOTE]

PFT is reporting an update that the Jets are saying LT's return is questionable.
Did he need to still be in that blowout game to the Pats?

Tiki Barber.... I know he is a joker, but at least has something to prove.

well greene is banged up but useable... Bilal Powell is still available (last i knew, anywho). so if LT and McKnight can't go this weekend we'll have Greene and Powell. Probably bring up someone from the practice squad to round out the stable.

Get Powell snaps. We drafted him for a reason and we have to see some more of him so we might now go into next season counting on him as a completely unproven player.

Jets will have better idea of Joe McKnight's availability for Sun vs Chiefs mid-wk when they hit practice field. Swelling is biggest concern

So, the Jets are fortunate that Joe McKnight's elbow injury isn't relatively too serious. No ligament tear is a sigh of relief.

Source tells me Joe McKnight's MRI revealed no tear. Just hyperextended. Lot of swelling.

LaDainian Tomlinson hurt same knee that caused him to miss 2 games. He expects to play next wk. David Harris hurt his ankle. Says he's fine

Chauncy Washington signed with the Cowboys last week. They are using him as a fullback apparently. He is listed at 247 pounds now.

Greene,LT and McKnight are all dinged up. I see a sense of urgency to get a RB here now.

Get Powell some damn reps in practice!
Why do we draft skill position players & not have them ready!

Morrice Morris is playing for the Lions for cripes sake.
LT & McKnight are banged up every week, why would he not know protections yet?
Because Shoddy sucks as a teacher.
Powell was a very good college back, we have a solid line playing well the past 2 weeks & are playing the Chiefs.

Give him the damn ball in some short yardage to give Greene a breather.
My god, every other team in the league uses all their players except the damn Jets when it comes to offense.
And another thing, no one can tell me that Mulligan is better than having Ducasse or ANY OTHER LINEMAN we have to use!
Shoddy is in charge, Mulligan is his fault!

What is their source? If you have a link to their article, it'll link to a source, probably a Jets beat writer.

LT was out 2 weeks and 1 play yeserday shelved him again. He didnt carry the ball after that. We need to sign somebody at the RB position.

RT @BrianCoz: It doesn't sound good for Joe McKnight's chances of playing this week. Rex Ryan says hyperextended elbow.
