Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley is on pace to return from his groin injury soon.
Mosley suffered the injury in Week 1 of the regular season and pretty much missed the remainder of the 2019 campaign. He underwent surgery in December but said he’s been jogging “a little bit” and expects to participate in “spring football,” according to ESPN’s Rich Cimini.
Additionally, Mosley is changing up his eating habits. He has now switched over to a vegan diet.
“Anything to give me the edge to get myself on the field and stay on the field as long as I can,” Mosley told SNY on Saturday.
Mosley was extremely frustrated last season not being able to be on the field with his teammates. So, this switch-up in diet could be in response to that.
The Jets signed Mosley to a five-year, $85 million deal in free agency last offseason and expected him to be a huge part of their defense. However, the groin injury he went down with in Week 1 took his season off course. Mosley tried to come back in Week 7 against the Patriots, but still didn’t look right. The Jets placed him on injured reserve in December after he opted to get surgery.
All the Jets can hope for is that Mosley can stay on the field in year two after an injury-plagued debut season in New York.
