#Jets CB Darrelle Revis suffered a torn ligament at some point this season, which explains why it was sore. Decided to get it operated on.

Revis, who had five interceptions in 2015, reportedly injured his wrist during the season.

The 30-year-old returned to the Jets last season after spending the 2013 season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the 2014 with the New England Patriots. He spent the first six seasons of his career with the Jets, who drafted him 14th overall in 2007.

Revis is expected to be ready for training camp.
