BigRy56 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Wow - that's a shame. If there's any position where we could 'afford' an injury at though, it's ILB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icer Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Sucks, he played really well last year and was one of the bright spots of the team. Hopefully that depth at LB pays off 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvill 51 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Frustrating that he was even in the game at point, but if there’s one position outside of DL that the team could survive a season ending injury it’s probably ILB. Great opportunity for Cashman, hopefully he runs with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewilly12 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Jets linebacker Avery Williamson is out for the season with a torn ACL, The Post’s Brian Costello confirmed on Friday. Williamson walked off the field after a second-quarter collision with Falcons cornerback Tevaughn Campbell during Thursday’s preseason matchup in Atlanta. An MRI exam revealed the devastating injury on Friday morning. The 27-year-old signed a three-year, $22.5 million contract in the offseason, and was expected to be the starting inside linebacker alongside free-agent signing CJ Mosley.

KRL Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Personally I feel bad for Williamson, to go through a whole off-season to be knocked out in a pre-season game stinks. But ILB is probably our strongest position so: Cashman Hewitt Wint Burgess get a chance to start. This would've been a disaster if we didn't get Mosley and Lee was still here calling the defense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdels62 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 It’s not the worst loss as it’s our 2nd deepest position but it sucks because he’s was our trade bait.

Hael Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Oof, pretty big blow.. fortunately it’s our deepest position, but all of a sudden our depth is now suspect, so we can’t afford any more injuries there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdxgreen Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Have to expect at least one major injury a season. But we have some depth there and we can probably pick up somebody on the waiver wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewilly12 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 The Jets just suffered their first catastrophic injury of the season. Linebacker Avery Williamson tore his ACL during Thursday night’s game against the Falcons, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. Williamson is now done for the season. That means the Jets will be without one of their two starting middle linebackers for the entire year. C.J. Mosley just lost his partner in the middle of the defense. Here are three thoughts on the injury, what it means and how it affects the Jets’ defense moving forward: 1. Why was Williamson still playing? Williamson picked up the injury when he collided with cornerback Tevaughn Campbell with 3:44 left in the second quarter. All the Jets’ starters had long since been removed from the game, but Williamson was still in there. Now, the Jets are going to pay for that gamble throughout 2019. Head coach Adam Gase was asked about the curious – and clearly all-too-risky – decision to keep Williamson on the field after the game, but hemmed and hawed, saying that some players have a certain schedule of reps and need to play in certain packages. Well, the Jets should have had fewer reps on Williamson’s calendar. There was absolutely no reason to expose him to extra risk, especially given the Jets’ relative lack of depth at linebacker. 2. Major defensive strength eliminated As we just mentioned, the Jets aren’t exactly stacked at inside linebacker. But their top two – Mosley and Williamson – were going to be one of the major strengths of this defense, alongside their safety tandem of Jamal Adams and Marcus Maye. Now, one of those backbone tenets is off the board. That could have a big ripple effect throughout the rest of the unit. Defensive coordinator Gregg Williams already had to game plan to paper over his massive holes at cornerback. Now, he may be trying to mask two weaknesses. Is that feasible? 3. Neville Hewitt, Blake Cashman or both? Hewitt and Cashman are probably the two most likely replacements for Williamson. Cashman, a fifth-round rookie, has been playing some with the first team all summer long, but obviously has no experience. Hewitt filled in at inside linebacker some last season, due to injuries, and has also shined this training camp, working mostly with the second team. He’s done a nice job flocking to the ball and consistently popping up to make plays. But the more useful path may be for the Jets to use both players in a platoon. Neither guy is really well suited to be a full-time starter at this point, but perhaps they can ham-and-egg it together by utilizing each player in differing situations, in order to best utilize their strengths. Cashman is probably the better cover guy, while Hewitt can get after the run. Cashman is sidelined with a hamstring injury right now, though. So the inside linebacker spot is looking mighty thin all of a sudden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could have happened in practice or 16 games this year. Dont go into a shell and not play guys now. You carry on as you were. And Avery was really our 5th option at LB, anyway.
