Jets Beat Bills, Sanchez Hurt
Week 13. Thursday, December 3, 2009. The New York Jets defeated the Buffalo Bills today 19-13 in Toronto but Mark Sanchez hurt his leg in the mid third quarter, apparently when he scrambled and slid headfirst for a first down. Sanchez had gotten a visit from New York Yankees manager Joe Girardi earlier in the week. Girardi’s visit was to teach Sanchez how slide feet first to help avoid hurting his legs. For whatever reason, Sanchez did not use this advice and hurt his right knee and had to come out of the game. Kellen Clemens finished out the game for the Jets and led a drive in the fourth quarter that led to a Jets field goal, increasing their lead at that time. It is expected that Sanchez will be able to start the Jets next game, but nothing is certain at this time. For more details on this game, read this article. Next game: Sunday, Dec.13th, 1:00PM, New York Jets @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
