New York Jets starting right tackle Morgan Moses is expected to miss two to four weeks with an MCL sprain and bone bruise, NFL Network reported Saturday.
Moses sustained the injury toward the end of the third quarter of the Jets’ 24-3 victory over the New England Patriots on Thursday.
First-round rookie Olumuyiwa Fashanu replaced Moses, who did not return to the game.
Fashanu has the support of Jets coach Robert Saleh.
“It was kind of a luxury when [Moses] got hurt. You’re sending out a first-round pick,” Saleh said. “He did good. He’s been getting a lot of reps in practice. Obviously, with the plans that we have for those two tackles, and again, he’s another guy that we’re looking forward to seeing getting better and better every week.”
Moses, 33, has started all three of New York’s games this season and 147 of the 155 in which he has played in his NFL career with the Washington franchise, Baltimore Ravens and Jets.
