New York Jets linebacker Quinton Coples will miss the rest of the preseason and is out indefinitely after suffering a hairline fracture in his ankle Saturday night against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The Jets also said in a statement that Coples will undergo a procedure for his ankle on Tuesday.
"Linebacker Quinton Coples suffered an injured right ankle Saturday night in the Jets' 37-13 win over Jacksonville at MetLife Stadium," the team said in the statement. "Coples will undergo a medical procedure on Tuesday. He will miss the remainder of the preseason and is out indefinitely."
