The injury is a nightmare for Washington, who was angling for a new contract. For what it’s worth, Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum has said Washington will be with the organization for a “long, long time.”

Unfortunate what happened to Washington, The Jets will miss him for the remainder of the season, Sanchez will have to have the poise of a veteran and the skill and mindset of a leader, a little too much to ask of a rookie QB?
