................................

Jets rookie linebacker Lorenzo Mauldin suffered a scary injury today during the team's win against the Cleveland Browns. Mauldin suffered head and neck injuries on a second half play where he forced a fumble. He was carted off the field on a spinal board and taken to a hospital. Manish Mehta has an update on his condition.

Mauldin continues to undergo tests. Early scans have come back clean. Hope at this point is that it's not more than a concussion. #nyj
