Sherwood, the Jets' fifth round draft pick out of Auburn, had solidified himself as a starter through the season's first half. Injuries are piling up for the Jets, who are now without Sherwood, LBs C.J. Mosley and Jarrad Davis, DE Carl Lawson, and S Lamarcus Joyner. Sherwood struggled with ankle injuries throughout his collegiate career and picked up another ankle injury earlier this season. His loss could make the Jets' secondary a little more vulnerable after a solid start to the season.
