The NY Jets have undergone significant changes this offseason, reshaping a roster that faced significant challenges after last season’s disappointments. While the team has made ambitious moves to bolster their lineup, there’s a consistent concern regarding the injuries of certain players like Mike Williams, Tyron Smith, and Morgan Moses.
Williams and Moses recently addressed the media, offering positive updates on their injury recoveries. Williams, who suffered an ACL tear in Week 3 of the previous season, anticipates being prepared for the 2024 season’s commencement, although his availability for training camp remains uncertain. Moses, on the other hand, disclosed that he endured a torn pectoral muscle in Week 4 of the last season but played through it until undergoing surgery six weeks ago. Despite this, he’s confident in his readiness for training camp.
Williams’ injury history, including his recent ACL tear and past back issues, is a notable concern. Yet, despite some missed games due to various injuries in the past, he has generally shown resilience in taking the field. Moses, in contrast, has been remarkably durable throughout his career, with his recent injury being a rare exception.
The Jets’ prospects for success hinge partly on the health of their new acquisitions. However, there’s also the recovery of their 40-year-old quarterback from a torn Achilles tendon to consider.
In the meantime, the updates on Williams’ and Moses’ injuries are promising, with expectations that both will be available before the season begins.
