Report: Jay Cutler Could Be Out Two to Three Weeks With Cracked Ribs
The Miami Dolphins believe quarterback Jay Cutler cracked two ribs in Sunday's game against the New York Jets and could be out for two to three weeks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Just two minutes into the second quarter, Cutler was hit by Jordan Jenkins while attempting a pass to Kenny Stills. He was 12 of 16 passing for 138 yards, two touchdowns and one interceptions before heading to the sidelines.
Cutler was getting treatment and attention from trainers on the sidelines before heading into the locker room.
Matt Moore entered the game as his replacement. Fans have been chanting for Moore to take over at quarterback for several weeks.
The Dolphins won Sunday's game 31-28. Miami plays the Ravens in Baltimore on Thursday, and then the Dolphins will face the Raiders followed by the Panthers on Monday, Nov. 13.
The next week the Dolphins face the Buccaneers because their Week One matchup was moved back due to Hurricane Irma. Miami does not have a bye week this season.
