FLORHAM PARK, N.J. _ Kelechi Osemele has decided that he will have season-ending shoulder surgery on Friday whether the Jets authorize it or not.
Osemele said he went for a third opinion on his shoulder in Boston earlier this week, and the doctor recommended surgery. He said the report was sent to the Jets on Wednesday morning, and that he hadn't heard anything from them yet.
"I'm just getting it done myself," Osemele said inside the Jets locker room "I have to take care of my body, I have to take care of my health. I have a family. I have to take care of myself.
