Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez traveled to Gulf Breeze, Fla. on Monday to have his injured right shoulder re-examined by Dr. James Andrews, according to two sources.
Sanchez will continue to rehab the shoulder, which has a slight labrum tear, instead of having surgery at this time, the sources said. Surgery remains a possibility, but Sanchez wants to exhaust the rehabilitation process before going that route.
The fifth-year quarterback is currently on IR with a designation to return. He is eligible to play in Week 11 against Buffalo.
He injured the shoulder on Aug. 24 in the fourth quarter of a preseason game with the Giants.
