The Jets’ backfield is ugly. RBs Breece Hall and Dalvin Cook each tallied 18 rushing yards on 12 and 8 carries, respectively. Neither player is getting it done for fantasy managers right now. Next week’s matchup vs. the Chiefs isn’t going to be any easier. Both Hall and Cook will be flex considerations in deeper leagues for now, though expectations shouldn’t be high for either.

Jets QB Zach Wilson completed 18 of 36 passes for 157 yards with no TDs or INTs in Week 3’s loss vs. the Patriots. There’s no reason he should be in lineups outside the deepest of 2QB or superflex leagues. The young signal-caller will remain off the fantasy radar in Week 4 vs. the Chiefs.

Jets K Greg Zuerlein (groin) is active for today’s game vs. the Patriots. He’s a weak fantasy play with the Jets sporting a 16.5-point implied total.

Jets K Greg Zuerlein (groin) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Patriots. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice, so he should play. But hopefully you’re not messing with this situation in fantasy lineups.

Jets RB Breece Hall totaled only 9 yards on 6 touches against Dallas. He wasn't afraid to speak his mind in the postgame presser. “I mean, I only got four touches. That’s why we struggled," Hall said. "It is what it is. We just got down early today and just abandoned the run. That type of stuff happens. You feel like you have to get back in the game and it just slips away.” Dalvin Cook, meanwhile, handled only 5 touches for 11 yards. Look for Hall to creep closer to 12+ touches next Sunday against New England.

Jets WR Garrett Wilson delivered 2 catches, 83 yards, and 1 TD in Week 2. Wilson did most of his damage on a 68-yard catch-and-run in the second quarter. He added a 29.6% target share – tops on the team. Wilson gets another tough draw this week vs. New England, but on talent alone, he's tough to keep out of fantasy lineups.

Jets LB Quincy Williams left Sunday's loss to the Cowboys with a knee injury. HC Robert Saleh after the game would only say that Williams is being evaluated. We'll see about his status for Week 3 against the Patriots.

Jets QB Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) is targeting a return for the NFL playoffs, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Rodgers underwent an "innovative" surgery on Wednesday "designed to accelerate the normal rehabilitation process," Rapoport writes. The procedure could reportedly have Rodgers back on the field in four months, which would be mid-January. The playoffs start on January 13. Rodgers is still not worth stashing in any redraft fantasy leagues. But, for dynasty owners, it's clear that he's hoping to continue his NFL career.

Jets K Greg Zuerlein (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys. Austin Seibert will kick in his place but is not a fantasy option.

Jets RB Breece Hall will remain on a pitch count in Week 2, HC Robert Saleh said. Hall was clearly New York's best RB in the opener, exploding for 127 yards on 10 carries. But the Jets are (wisely if annoyingly) sticking to their plan for him as he works back from the torn ACL. "Hall had 11 touches on Monday night. Have to think it'll be about the same on Sunday," ESPN's Rich Cimini tweeted. With QB Zach Wilson under center against a tough Cowboys defense, Hall is stuck in RB3 territory in the Week 2 Rankings.

Jets K Greg Zuerlein is "50/50" for Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys, HC Robert Saleh said. Zuerlein hurt his groin on Thursday and didn't practice on Friday. Kicking for the Zach Wilson-led Jets in a bad matchup, Zuerlein shouldn't have been in your Week 2 fantasy plans anyway.

An MRI confirmed that Jets QB Aaron Rodgers has a torn Achilles, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. That ends Rodgers' season after just four snaps. Turning 40 in December, Rodgers' football future is uncertain. He's signed with the Jets for two more seasons, although he carries a $51.5 million cap hit in 2025. The Rodgers injury puts Zach Wilson back under center for now. We'll see if the Jets -- with Super Bowl aspirations -- make a move at QB. For now, all Jets skill-position players are fantasy losers.

Jets HC Robert Saleh said after Monday night's win over the Bills that the team fears QB Aaron Rodgers has a torn Achilles. He's scheduled for an MRI on Monday to confirm. "It's not good," Saleh added. A torn Achilles would end Rodgers' season -- and put the 39-year-old's football future in serious doubt. It'd also leave QB Zach Wilson as New York's starter. That'd obviously be a significant downgrade for all of the Jets' skill-position players.

Jets WR Garrett Wilson wrangled an incredible TD in Monday night's victory to go along with 5 catches for 34 receiving yards vs. the Bills. Teammate Allen Lazard led the team with 46 receiving yards on 2 catches. HC Robert Saleh shared in the post-game press conference that "the MRI is probably going to confirm what [the Jets] already think" is an Achilles injury for QB Aaron Rodgers. We'll learn more about those details on Tuesday. Should that be the case and Rodgers misses time, fantasy managers will have to significantly readjust expectations for Jets' pass-catchers in 2023. Stay tuned for more information.

Jets RB Breece Hall looked explosive in his first game back in NFL action, logging 10 carries for 127 yards in Monday’s OT victory vs. the Bills. Among his highlights are an 83-yard run he made at the beginning of the second quarter and a 20-yard reception. A fully healthy Hall likely would’ve taken that long run to the end zone, but it’s a great sign of future production to come nonetheless. Teammate Dalvin Cook was not quite as efficient in the contest. The veteran posted 13 carries for 33 rushing yards and 3 catches for 26 yards. It’s safe to assume the Jets’ coaching staff will continue to split the workload between the pair as the early season continues. Even so, Hall is the player that fantasy managers should trust between the two in Week 2 vs. the Cowboys.

Jets QB Zach Wilson completed 14 passes on 21 attempts for 140 passing yards with 1 TD and INT apiece in Week 1. The youngster relieved the injured Aaron Rodgers in Monday night's OT win vs. the Bills. The former No. 3 overall pick showed signs of why the franchise opted to replace him as the starter to begin with. WR Garrett Wilson batted the ball to himself with a couple of taps to record his receiving TD, if that says anything. Stay tuned for further updates regarding Rodgers' health ahead of Week 2 vs. the Cowboys. Jets HC Robert Saleh shared in the post-game press conference that "the MRI is probably going to confirm what [the Jets] already think" about the rumored Achilles injury for their starter. It's looking like fantasy managers will see Wilson start the rest of the way.

Jets QB Aaron Rodgers suffered an apparent left leg injury on his first possession in Monday night's game vs. the Bills. He headed immediately into the blue medical tent and was then carted back to the locker room. We'll update his status when we know more.

Update: The Jets say Rodgers has an ankle injury and is questionable to return.

Update: Rodgers went for X-rays and now has a boot on his left foot, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.

Update: Rodgers has been ruled out. X-rays on the ankle came back clean, ESPN's Lisa Salters reports.

Dalvin Cook is expected to open the season as the Jets' lead back, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "Dalvin Cook is expected to get the bulk of the carries for the New York Jets at least during the early part of the season," Rapoport adds. "My understanding is that they'll be extremely smart and safe with" RB Breece Hall. No surprises here. Cook figures to be the more reliable fantasy option early in the season. But Hall's touches should climb throughout the year.

Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 1. He practiced all week, though, including a full practice on Saturday. Hall is fully expected to play vs. the Bills on Monday night but figures to be on some type of touch count in his first action since last year's torn ACL. "We have a plan," HC Robert Saleh said. "I'm not going to talk about it here, but there's going to be a constant communication because what the plan is can be more, can be less, but we have an idea of what we want to get done. He has an idea of what he'd like to accomplish. But at the same time, communication -- constantly checking in to see where he's at, physically and mentally -- is going to be key." See where Hall sits in the Week 1 RB Rankings.

Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) was limited in Thursday's practice. He's fully expected to play vs. the Bills on Monday night -- but this is a reminder that Hall will likely be on some type of snap count coming off last October's ACL tear.
