New York Jets quarterback Bryce Petty suffered a "considerable" injury to his MCL in Saturday's 32-31 loss to the New York Giants.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported the news.
After the Jets selected him in the fourth round of the 2015 NFL draft, Petty made his Jets debut last year in Week 9. In six appearances, he threw for 809 yards, three touchdowns and seven interceptions. The team placed him on injured reserve last December with a torn left shoulder labrum.
Many were surprised when signing Josh McCown in the offseason was the biggest move the Jets did to address the quarterback position.
