Injury update: Jarrad Davis to miss several weeks

It looks like today's practice wasn't media-covered after all but we did at least get some significant updates on injured players:

Jets’ LB Jarrad Davis is expected to be sidelined until the team’s bye in week 6 with an ankle injury, per HC Robert Saleh.

Davis could now be placed on injured reserve to start the season, which would mean he wouldn't be eligible to come back until week four. The Jets are scheduled to play Atlanta in London in week five and then the bye week is immediately afterwards.

Saleh told the media that Jamien Sherwood will start in place of Davis and said he was encouraged with the rookie's progress.

In terms of other injuries from Saturday's game, Mike White and Ronald Blair are day-to-day with rib and hamstring injuries respectively. Conor McDermott's knee injury requires further tests but may not be season ending. It does look like he'll be out for several weeks though.

Saleh said the Jets hope that rookies Elijah Moore and Alijah Vera-Tucker will practice this week and that either could play on Friday night against the Eagles. He also said the team will increase Quinnen Williams' workload this week.
