19 hours agoNew York Jets defensive lineman Will McDonald (leg) left the game on Thursday but eventually returned after a non-contact injury to his leg. He was helped off of the field in the second quarter but later returned in the second half. Ian Rapoport has reported that McDonald seemed to have avoided a major injury but is worth monitoring in case the team finds any issues leading up to their Week 10 matchup with the Arizona Cardinals.Source: Ian Rapoport
19 hours agoNew York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner (foot) seemingly injured his foot on Thursday night during the fourth quarter of their contest against the Houston Texans. The star defensive back was able to come back into the game, but Ian Rapoport says that his status is worth monitoring especially if the team decides to do some tests on Friday. There hasn't been any official word of an injury that will cause him to miss some time just yet.Source: Ian Rapoport
19 hours agoDallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey is currently the K4 on the season. He has only missed two field goals, made all of his extra points, and has the longest kick of the season at 65 yards. He's also made the second-most 50+ yarders behind Ka'imi Fairbairn. In Week 9, he'll go up against the Atlanta Falcons who have given up the most fantasy points to kickers this season. On average, opposing kickers are scoring 12.3 fantasy points per game against the Falcons, and with the Cowboys' offense not able to score as many touchdowns as expected, he should be quite busy this week.Source: RotoBaller
19 hours agoDallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson hasn't been able to produce a big outing over the last couple of weeks. Week 8 was the first time he received a target share of more than 20% and failed to finish in TE1 territory. He even had the highest snap percentage of the season in that game, but went up against a solid defensive unit in the San Francisco 49ers. Now, they'll take on the Atlanta Falcons who have given up their fair share of fantasy points to tight ends (10.8 per game for half-PPR). Fantasy managers can look to Ferguson to bounce back in this one.Source: RotoBaller
20 hours agoHouston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn had a rough outing on Thursday night along with the rest of the team in the 21-13 loss to the New York Jets. The 30-year-old made a 29 and 54-yarder as well as an extra point but missed a 27 and 56-yarder. This was the first game all season that Fairbairn missed more than one field goal which brings his overall percentage down to 84.0%. He'll look to bounce back in a Sunday night game against the Detroit Lions in Week 10.Source: ESPN
20 hours agoHouston Texans wide receiver Robert Woods was expected to be a bigger part of the offense in the Thursday night game against the New York Jets. During the 21-13 loss, he saw three targets and caught two of them for 44 yards. The Jets' defense shut down the passing game as they only put up 135 yards through the air compared to 187 on the ground. C.J. Stroud was also sacked eight times, so Woods didn't have much of a chance to get open. The Texans will get some extra rest heading into their Week 10 matchup against another good defense in the Detroit Lions.Source: ESPN
20 hours agoHouston Texans edge rusher Will Anderson Jr. (ankle) was forced to leave their Thursday night game against the New York Jets after suffering an ankle injury in the first quarter. The reigning Defensive Rookie of the Year seemed to have his ankle rolled on as he tried to tackle the ball carrier and looked to be in a lot of pain. After getting his ankle taped, he tried returning to the game but was ultimately ruled out in the second quarter. Ian Rapoport says that his injury is worth monitoring going into next week, but Anderson will benefit from extra days of rest since they don't play until Sunday night of next week.Source: Ian Rapoport
1 day agoThe New York Jets defense played well in a 21-13 win over the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. New York sacked C.J. Stroud eight times while forcing one turnover, a Stroud fumble, in the close win. The Jets defense made things tough for Stroud and the Houston offense all night, allowing just 322 yards of total offense. They were led by Jamien Sherwood and Micheal Clemons, who notched two sacks apiece. The Jets will look to stay hot against the Arizona Cardinals on the road in Week 10.Source: NFL.com
1 day agoNew York Jets kicker Riley Patterson did not attempt any field goals but hit all three of his extra points in a 21-13 win over the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. Making his debut for the Jets after they placed Greg Zuerlein (knee) on injured reserve earlier in the week, Patterson was perfect in the close win over the Texans. The veteran will presumably remain the Jets' kicker heading into a Week 10 road matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.Source: NFL.com
1 day agoNew York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin lost three yards on his lone catch in a 21-13 win over the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. Conklin drew just two targets in the game as Aaron Rodgers directed 21 of his 32 pass attempts toward either Garrett Wilson or Davante Adams. That didn't leave much else for the rest of the Jets pass catchers, including Conklin who was outproduced by fellow tight ends Kenny Yeboah (one catch for 12 yards) and Jeremy Ruckert (one catch for four yards). Conklin will look to regroup heading into a Week 10 road matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.Source: NFL.com
1 day agoNew York Jets wide receiver Davante Adams (concussion) caught seven of his 11 targets for 91 yards and a touchdown in a 21-13 win over the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. Adams and Aaron Rodgers connected for their first touchdown since they played for the Green Bay Packers together back in 2022 on a 37-yard strike in the fourth quarter. The big outing from Adams easily goes in the books as his best effort since the Jets acquired him from the Las Vegas Raiders ahead of Week 7. Adams survived an injury scare during the second half as he was evaluated for a concussion. He ultimately passed the league's testing and was able to return to the field for the remainder of the game. Adams will be a solid WR2 in fantasy heading into Week 10's road game against the Arizona Cardinals.Source: NFL.com
1 day agoNew York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson turned in a huge game in his team's 21-13 win over the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. Wilson caught nine of his 10 targets for 90 yards and two touchdowns to help down the Texans in the close game. The veteran receiver's second touchdown was impressive as he made a leaping, one-handed grab in close coverage in the back of the end zone and just barely got both feet down in bounds for a 26-yard score. Wilson is hitting his stride after a quiet start to the season and has 60 catches for 663 yards and five touchdowns through nine games. He will be a low-end WR1 heading into a Week 10 road matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.Source: NFL.com
1 day agoNew York Jets running back Braelon Allen carried the ball four times for nine yards and failed to catch his lone target in a 21-13 win over the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. Allen showed some life last week, turning 12 carries into 32 yards and a touchdown but he was right back to just a handful of carries behind Breece Hall in Thursday night's win. Allen has seen eight or fewer carries in five of his past six contests as the Jets have committed to getting the ball in Hall's hands of late. Allen remains a solid fantasy handcuff behind Hall but should not be in starting lineups in Week 10 when the Jets face off against the Arizona Cardinals on the road.Source: NFL.com
1 day agoNew York Jets running back Breece Hall carried the ball 15 times for 74 yards and caught two of his four targets for 11 yards in a 21-13 win over the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. Hall dominated the backfield work for the Jets in the close win as he out-touched Braelon Allen 16 to four in the contest. The veteran running back has now rushed for 502 yards while catching 35 passes for 327 yards and four all-purpose touchdowns through nine games this season. He will be an RB1 in fantasy heading into a Week 10 road matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.Source: NFL.com
1 day agoNew York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 22 of his 32 passes for 211 yards and three touchdowns in a 21-13 win over the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. That goes into the books as Rodgers' first game with more than two touchdown passes all season as he helped pull off the home win. Two of Rodgers' touchdown passes went to Garrett Wilson while the last one was a 37-yard strike to Davante Adams in the fourth quarter, the first touchdown connection for the two since Adams was acquired in a trade with the Las Vegas Raiders ahead of Week 7. Locked in as a QB2 in fantasy, Rodgers will take 15 touchdowns and seven interceptions into his Week 10 matchup, which will be on the road against the Arizona Cardinals.Source: NFL.com
