Jets' Andre Cisco to Undergo Surgery for Pectoral Tear, Out Indefinitely

The loss tests a turnover-starved secondary that has yet to record an interception.

Overview

  • ESPN reports the starting safety sustained a pectoral tear that requires surgical repair and will sideline him indefinitely.
  • Cisco was injured in the fourth quarter of New York's 39-38 win over the Bengals, the team's first victory under head coach Aaron Glenn.
  • Tony Adams, who had been benched earlier this month, is expected to reclaim a starting role with Cisco out, according to ESPN.
  • Additional rotation options at safety could include Malachi Moore and Isaiah Oliver, per subsequent reports.
  • Cisco signed a one-year, $8.5 million deal after four seasons in Jacksonville and had played 98% of snaps this year with 41 tackles, one pass breakup and no interceptions; the Jets have a bye before hosting the Browns on Nov. 9.
