New York Jets running back Elijah McGuire will reportedly be out for three to six weeks after breaking his foot and undergoing surgery, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
The Jets selected McGuire with a sixth-round pick out of Louisiana-Lafayette in 2017, and he responded with 315 rushing yards and a touchdown in his rookie campaign.
McGuire's potential was clear in college when he topped 1,000 rushing yards in each of his final three years for the Ragin' Cajuns and also contributed in the passing attack with 10 touchdown receptions during his collegiate career.
