As expected, this wasn’t as serious as it initially looked (before Moses was able to walk off under his own power and the prognosis already looked more optimistic):
#Jets OT Morgan Moses, after a battery of tests, is expected to miss 2-4 weeks with an MCL sprain and bone bruise, per me and @MikeGarafolo. A sigh of relief for the key veteran.

Olu Fashanu will now get to start a few games at right tackle and the Jets will hope that how well he acquitted himself in the fourth quarter of Thursday night’s game is a good sign that he’ll hold his own.
Either Max Mitchell or Carter Warren will now move to the active list on gameday after both had been healthy scratches for the first few games. They’ll be on standby in case of an injury to Tyron Smith or Fashanu himself.
