HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. -- Free safety Jon McGraw of the New York
Jets will be out two to four weeks with a partially dislocated
right shoulder.
McGraw was injured in the 30-3 win over Buffalo on Sunday and
had an MRI exam Monday that revealed the injury. In five games he
had 21 tackles, including 10 at New England in September, and a
pass defensed.
The second-year player became a starter this season after Damien
Robinson left via free agency. As a rookie last year, McGraw played
in 15 regular-season games and had 43 tackles with an interception.
McGraw is the second starter in the secondary to go down with an
injury. Cornerback Donnie Abraham broke his right shoulder against
the Miami Dolphins on Sept. 21 and is expected to be out another
four weeks.
Without McGraw, the Jets will play free-agent pickup Tyrone
Carter or rookie Derek Pagel. Carter spent his first three seasons
with Minnesota.
Pagel, a fifth-round pick in the draft, has seen limited time
this season.
