Jets’ cornerback Revis likely out for season with torn ACL

Jets CB Darrelle Revis could miss the remainder of the season with a torn ACL suffered on Sunday.

The New York Jets’ Darrelle Revis, perhaps the NFL’s top cornerback and the team’s best defensive player, is likely out for the season after it was confirmed Monday that he tore the ACL in his left knee during the third quarter of the Jets’ win over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday when he fell awkwardly. Revis will have to have surgery, and recovery from an ACL tear usually takes six to nine months. Kyle Wilson, the Jets’ first-round draft pick in 2010, will step into Revis’ starting role.
