Robert Saleh gives Jets injury updates, including Trevon Wesco’s ankle injury and Mekhi Becton’s return to field work

Following the Jets’ 21-14 win over the Houston Texans, head coach Robert Saleh spoke to reporters at practice on Monday afternoon and gave injury updates for Gang Green.

“Trevon Wesco, he’s got an ankle, he’s gonna be two to four weeks,” Saleh said. “Corey Davis is day-to-day with his groin, Mike White‘s still gonna be out with COVID, Joe Flacco is back in, Mimsy [Denzel Mims] will be at practice Wednesday.

Saleh went on to briefly talk about Becton, the team’s No. 11 pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. The LT has been out since suffering a knee injury in Week 1 and opting for surgery. Becton’s initial timetable for return was mid-November, but likely after Thanksgiving.
