The New York Jets lose Kris Jenkins for the season
The Jets have lost starting NT Kris Jenkins for the season due to a severe knee injury. He finishes the season for the Jets with 13 tackles including 4 tackles for a loss. DE Sione Pouha will slide inside to replace Jenkins at nose guard. He has 19 tackles including 1 tackle for a loss. This is a downgrade for the Jets as Jenkins was a better run defender than Pouha is. Marques Douglas will replace Pouha at DE. He has 26 tackles this season, 1/2 a sack and he has 2 tackles for a loss. This injury really will hurt the run defense of the Jets going forward.
UPDATE: The Jets have re-signed 30-year old Howard Green to help cushion the blow of losing Kris Jenkins. Green has played in 3 games for the Jets this season and he has 6 tackles.
