The New York Jets have placed star wide receiver Garrett Wilson in the league's concussion protocol, casting doubt on whether he'll suit up for the team's Week 9 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to Sporting News and Yahoo Sports.

Wilson's latest outing came in the Jets' Week 8 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, where he hauled in six catches, per Yahoo Sports. It remains unclear exactly when or how the injury occurred, but his placement in protocol has raised real concern about his ability to clear league-mandated evaluations in time for Sunday's game.

The Jets have not confirmed whether Wilson will be ruled out entirely, leaving his status a key storyline heading into the Week 9 clash with Kansas City.
