Jermaine Johnson injury update: NY Jets linebacker suffers season-ending injury vs Titans

The Jets earned their first victory of the season in a 24-17 win over Tennessee Titans in Week 2, but it came at a cost.
It was confirmed on Monday morning that linebacker Jermaine Johnson suffered a torn Achilles during the third quarter against the Titans on Sunday afternoon.
Johnson was looking to bank off a successful 2023 campaign where he played in all 17 games and notched career-highs in sacks (7.5), tackles (55) and returned an interception for a touchdown last year.
With Johnson now officially out for the remainder of the season, Gang Green will need to find answers and quick with fellow starters on defense in C.J. Mosley and DJ Reed, who both might not suit up on a short week versus the New England Patriots on Thursday night.
The former first round pick will now have a long recovery road ahead of him as he prepares for his return at some point during the 2025 season.
