Jets lose Boozer for season with knee injury
New York Jets will continue their AFL Eastern title bid without Emerson Boozer after he underwent knee surgery for torn ligaments and damaged cartilage. Boozer led ground gains and scored 78 points in eight games, heightening reliance on a struggling running attack already missing fullback Matt Snell. The injury threatens Snell’s earlier two week return plan as New York faces Buffalo with a one game lead over Houston. Boozer expected to be hospitalized for two to three days.
