It didn’t look good and Zach Wilson obviously didn’t feel good.
But Jets coach Robert Saleh declined to provide an update on Wilson’s right knee injury after Friday night’s 24-21 win over the Eagles.
“was will wait on the MRI,” Saleh said in a video shared by SNY. “I’m 0-fer folks trying to decipher doctor’s language so I’ll just play the MRI and we’ll find out tomorrow.”
Saleh admitted the ACL is “intended to be intact.”
“But again, let’s wait until the MRI,” Saleh added.
At 4:29 in the first quarter, Wilson climbed to the right flank. He went down untouched as he put his foot down at the end of a 7-yard streak. Wilson favored his right leg as he left the field.
“He’s in good spirits,” Saleh said. “He’s fine. A little frustrated, obviously. But he’s as good as you can be in this situation.”
The turf at Lincoln Financial Field is new since it was replaced on July 29, per Saleh, but he wouldn’t speculate if it contributed to Wilson’s injury.
Wilson finished his night 3-on-5 for 23 yards and an interception. Mike White replaced Wilson, but veteran Joe Flacco, whom Saleh praised last week, is the team’s No. 2 quarterback.
