More bad news on the injury front for the Jets at the offensive tackle position. According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, rookie tackle Max Mitchell suffered a dislocated kneecap in yesterday’s win. It’s the same injury suffered by Mekhi Becton two seasons ago. In Becton’s case, his 5-8 weeks turned out to be nearly a full season. With Mitchell being significantly lighter than Becton, the team will undoubtedly hope his rehab goes according to plan.
