On Tuesday, UCLA star linebacker/running back Myles Jack was injured towards the end of practice, and deemed out for the season. Today, the official diagnosis is in: Jack has a torn meniscus, per head coach Jim Mora.

Jim Mora said UCLA LB Myles Jack tore his anterior meniscus. Out 4-6 months. No chance he comes back for a bowl game.

This is fairly good news for Jack, as that injury generally has a faster recovery time than if it was an ACL, or something similar.
