New York, which was already without starter Sam Darnold, was forced to bring in third-string signal-caller Luke Falk.
Siemian was tackled awkwardly in the second quarter and went to the locker room after spending time on the sidelines.
He was, however, able to put weight on his leg.

Darnold missed the game with mono and is expected to be out until at least Week 5.
