Jets QB Sanchez checks out after taking pounding vs. Eagles

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez will not require any tests on his right shoulder and "is fine," a team source said Monday.

Sanchez told The Associated Press later Monday that he's "feeling good" and didn't need follow-up tests. He also said he expects to take all the snaps in practice Tuesday and shouldn't be limited in preparing for Saturday's game against the New York Giants.

Sanchez took a hard hit from Eagles defensive end Jason Babin during the third quarter of the 45-19 loss at Philadelphia and went to the bench to be examined. Sanchez was knocked around in the game, completing 15 of 26 passes for 150 yards and two touchdowns with two interceptions.

Jets coach Rex Ryan said on his weekly radio spot that Sanchez received treatment at the team's facility, and "he'll be starting Saturday."
