Nick Folk to Miss Up to 4-6 Weeks

Look like the Jets have to go kicker shopping.

FLORHAM PARK, NJ - According to multiple reports Jets kicker Nick Folk will miss at least 4-6 weeks and season-ending IR is a possibility. Folk strained his quad in pregame warmups before the Jets win over the Jaguars and while Ryan Quigley filled in adirmably for Folk the Jets clearly need to get an actual place-kicker until Folk returns.

Quigley handled his normal punting duties, kickoffs and extra points (going 4-4), and after the game he said he felt he could make field goals of less than 45 yards, but the one thing Todd Bowles was hesitant to let Quigley try was actual field goals.
