Free safety Jon McGraw of the New York Jets will be out two to four weeks with a partially dislocated right shoulder.
McGraw was injured in the 30-3 win over Buffalo on Sunday and had an MRI exam Monday that revealed the injury. In five games he had 21 tackles, including 10 at New England in September, and a pass defensed.
The second-year player became a starter this season after Damien Robinson left via free agency. As a rookie last year, McGraw played in 15 regular-season games and had 43 tackles with an interception. NFL Tickets
