Related Topics: Bruise, Thorax, Bryce Petty

Ian Rapoport is reporting that the news was good for Bryce Petty on the injury front. A chest bruise is pretty much the best possible outcome, after he received a big time hit on Saturday night.

Brian Costello added that there were no broken ribs and that Petty should be able to start on Sunday against the Patriots.

An X-ray on Saturday night showed no broken ribs, but Petty went for further testing Sunday to see whether there is any structural damage to his ribs.

The Jets have not made any official announcement, but if the report is correct, Petty should be able to play against the Patriots on Saturday.
