New York Jets fans received some unfortunate news on Thursday.
The team's new starting quarterback Justin Fields was carted off the practice field from an apparent lower leg injury, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported.
A trainer ran onto the field to check out Fields's leg before they carted him to the locker room, SNYtv's Connor Hughes reported. The Jets then paused that part of practice to focus on special teams instead.
The Jets' new era with Fields could be postponed depending on how serious the injury is.
This is a developing story. Check back for more updates.
