New York Jets Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Jets WR Davante Adams wasn’t limited in his first game with the Jets. Coming off a hamstring strain, the veteran played 55 snaps and ran 39 routes – only one fewer than Garrett Wilson. Still, Adams caught only 33% of his targets in Sunday’s blowout loss to Pittsburgh.

Jets RB Breece Hall looked in top form against Pittsburgh, totaling 141 yards on 18 touches. Five of his touches went for at least ten yards.

Jets CB D.J. Reed (groin) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Steelers. That leaves the Jets down two of their top three at the position, with slot CB Michael Carter already out. Good thing for them Pittsburgh only has one WR, and he only tries half the time.

Jets TE Tyler Conklin (hip) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Steelers. He played through this issue last week but registered a season-low 66% route rate. With WR Davante Adams set to make his Jets debut tonight, Conklin figures to have a tough time drawing targets. He’s not a recommended Week 7 fantasy starter.

The Jets and Edge Haason Reddick have worked out an adjusted contract for the rest of 2024, and he'll report to the team Monday morning. That will finally end a holdout that has been going since the Eagles traded Reddick at the beginning of April.

Jets WR Davante Adams (hamstring) put in a full week of practice and isn’t listed on the final injury report. He’ll make his Jets debut vs. the Steelers on Sunday night. Considering his familiarity with QB Aaron Rodgers, we’re projecting Adams to play close to a full allotment of snaps. He lands inside the top-24 WRs in the Week 7 Rankings.

Jets TE Tyler Conklin (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game vs. the Steelers. He played through this issue last week, but his route rate sunk to a season-low 66%. He’s also now contending with the addition of WR Davante Adams. Conklin is not a recommended Week 7 fantasy starter.

Jets WR Davante Adams (hamstring) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Looks like the hamstring healed right up on Adams' trip from Vegas to New York. He'll make his Jets debut on Sunday night vs. the Steelers. See where Adams sits in the Week 7 WR Rankings.

New Jets WR Davante Adams is "planning" to play vs. the Steelers on Sunday night, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. We'll see if Adams' (alleged) hamstring injury impacts his practice week. Considering his long history with QB Aaron Rodgers, we'd expect his transition to a new team to be much smoother than it is for most WRs who move in-season. The matchup is tough against Pittsburgh's fourth-ranked WR defense, but Adams will certainly be startable for most fantasy teams.

The Jets will make WR Mike Williams available for trade, according to insider Jordan Schultz. Williams has been running as New York's No. 3 WR and will now be No. 4 on the depth chart with Davante Adams' arrival. Williams hasn't looked 100% recovered from last year's torn ACL, struggling to draw targets or get on the same page as QB Aaron Rodgers. Leaving New York could only be good news for his fantasy value. We'll see if the Jets find a trade partner.

The Jets have placed S Chuck Clark on IR after he suffered a high ankle sprain in Monday night's loss to the Bills. That knocks Clark our for at least the next four games. That makes him eligible to return for Week 11, with one game before the Jets' Week 12 bye. We'll see what the team does with that. Clark is OK to drop for DB help in most IDP leagues. Ashtyn Davis should fill in for him and has been a player worth challenging in coverage for opponent passing games.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the Raiders are finalizing a deal to send WR Davante Adams to the Jets for a conditional draft pick that could become a second-rounder at peak.

Jets LB C.J. Mosley is active for tonight's game against the Bills. He hasn't played since Week 2 because of a toe injury. It's not yet clear whether Mosley will return to his season-opening role or cede some playing time to Jamien Sherwood, who joined Quincy Williams as a full-timer while Mosley was out.

Jets TE Tyler Conklin (hip) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Bills. He was limited in practice all week but never seemed to be in danger of missing this one. Buffalo ranks a middling 14th in adjusted fantasy points allowed to TEs.

Jets LB C.J. Mosley is questionable for Monday night's game against the Bills after putting in limited practices all week. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo says "all indications are" that Mosley "should be a go."

Jets TE Tyler Conklin (hip) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Bills. He was limited in practice all week. We've heard nothing to suggest that Conklin is in real danger of missing this one, but the late kickoff makes it a trickier situation. Fantasy owners hoping to start Conklin could add Jets backup TE Jeremy Ruckert as insurance. Bills TE Dawson Knox is also a potential replacement if Conklin ends up inactive.

Todd Downing will replace Nathaniel Hackett as the Jets' play-caller, interim HC Jeff Ulbrich announced on Thursday. While defensive-minded HC Robert Saleh was canned earlier this week, the offense has been the real problem in New York. The Jets rank 23rd in points, 27th in total yards, and 27th in yards per play. That's largely on Hackett, who has deployed a stale offense. We're just not sure it'll get much better with Downing. He's spent three seasons as an NFL OC, one with the Raiders and two with the Titans. Those offenses ranked 17th, 17th, and 30th in total yards. QB Aaron Rodgers is on board with the move, according to insider Connor Hughes. We'll get our first look at Downing's offense in Monday night's Jets vs. Bills game.

Raiders WR Davante Adams (hamstring) is not expected to play vs. the Steelers this weekend, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Vegas has no reason to risk a setback with Adams' hamstring as they look to move him ahead of the November 5 trade deadline. His absence will again leave WR Jakobi Meyers, TE Brock Bowers, and WR Tre Tucker as the Raiders' top three targets. Meyers leads the team with 19 targets on a big 31.1% share over the past two weeks. Bowers has 15 targets on a 24.6% share.

The New York Jets have fired Head Coach Robert Saleh after the Jets started with a 2-3 record. They are coming off a 23-17 loss to the Vikings in the UK. Defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich is being named the interim head coach and will coach the team on Monday when they face off against the Buffalo Bills.

Jets QB Aaron Rodgers suffered a low-ankle sprain in Sunday morning's loss to the Vikings, HC Robert Saleh said. "All the preliminary stuff says he'll be fine," Saleh added. Rodgers has an extra day to heal up ahead of next Monday night's game vs. the Bills. It sounds like he'll be available for that one, although any loss of mobility is a concern for the 40-year-old. Rodgers has taken eight sacks over his last two games.
