New York Jets right tackle Morgan Moses is recovering from surgery for a torn pectoral muscle but expects to be ready for training camp.
“I look forward to having two arms this year,” Moses said at his introductory press conference on Wednesday.
Moses, 33, spent the past two seasons with the Baltimore Ravens before returning to the Jets in a trade last week. He started 16 of his 17 games during his lone season with New York in 2021.
Moses revealed Wednesday that he tore his pec in Week 4 last season but delayed surgery until six weeks ago.
He sat out the Ravens’ games in Week 5 and Weeks 9-10 but finished with 16 total starts, including the playoffs.
Moses has started 144 of his 152 career regular-season games with Washington (2014-20), New York and Baltimore. Washington drafted him in the third round in 2014.
The Ravens swapped fourth-round picks with New York and received the Jets’ sixth-round pick in next month’s draft in exchange for Moses.
