Robby Anderson In Danger Of Missing Week 8

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson (ankle) is missing practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Anderson must get in a practice on Friday to have any chance of playing in Week 8 against the Bears. With Quincy Enunwa (ankle) also out and Terrelle Pryor no longer on the team, New York's wide […]

Quincy Enunwa Ruled Out For Week 8

New York Jets wide receiver Quincy Enunwa (ankle) has yet to practice this week and has been ruled out for Week 8 against the Bears. Enunwa suffered a high ankle sprain on Oct. 14 against the Colts and could miss another game or two. While most fantasy owners have probably dropped him at this point, […]

Bilal Powell's Career In Jeopardy

New York Jets running back Bilal Powell (neck), who was placed on Injured Reserve on Wednesday, will have season-ending surgery on his neck. The injury could also be career-threatening, according to head coach Todd Bowles. The 29-year-old Powell will be a free agent after this season, so he may struggle to find work. He'll finish […]

Robby Anderson, Quincy Enunwa Miss Practice

New York Jets wide receivers Robby Anderson (ankle) and Quincy Enunwa (ankle) both missed practice on Wednesday. With Enunwa expected to miss another week or two with his high ankle sprain, the Jets can ill-afford to have Anderson sit out in Week 8 against the tough Bears defense. Anderson disappointed with only three receptions on […]

Isaiah Crowell Practicing In Full

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (foot) is practicing in full on Wednesday for the first time in three weeks. It's good news, especially since Bilal Powell (neck) is having season-ending surgery. Crowell's workload might increase slightly, but rookie Trenton Cannon should help on passing downs until Elijah McGuire (foot) returns from the Physically […]

Bilal Powell Out For The Season

The New York Jets placed running back Bilal Powell (neck) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday, effectively ending his season. He will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, so Week 7 could've been his last game with the team. He had rushed for 343 yards on 80 carries while also catching 11 passes for 110 […]

Jets Unlikely To Land Patrick Peterson

The Arizona Cardinals fielded an inquiry from the New York Jets on cornerback Patrick Peterson, according to a source. However, the Cardinals aren't trading Peterson to the Jets, barring a miracle. The Jets are in desperate need of secondary help with cornerbacks Trumaine Johnson and Buster Skrine and safety Marcus Maye all currently injury, but […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 8 Lightning Round

Week 7 was a particularly chaotic one, with several big names going down with injuries and smaller names stepping up before most of us woke up (thanks, London) all the way through the night.

The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 8)

This is your weekly list of players to drop. I will do my best to limit this list to injured players and players you might consider holding. If you roster pure handcuffs or backups, obviously you can let them go at any time. The players on this list will, ideally, be guys that aren't clearly […]

Week 8 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2018 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

  Some weeks, kickers put up a ton of points and they win you a week. This week was not one of those, as the leading scorer after Sunday was Detroit Lions kicker Matt Prater with 14 points in standard formats. Hopefully, things turn out better this week with a new slate of games and […]

Jets Sign Rishard Matthews

The New York Jets are signing free-agent wide receiver Rishard Matthews on Tuesday, according to a source. Matthews fell out of favor with the new coaching staff in Tennessee despite going for 65 catches, 945 yards and nine touchdowns just two seasons ago. There is opportunity in New York with Quincy Enunwa (ankle) out a […]

Elijah McGuire Designated To Return From IR

New York Jets running back Elijah McGuire (foot) returned to practice last week and has been designated as one of the team's players to return from Injured Reserve. McGuire missed the entire preseason and hasn't played yet this year. As a rookie in 2017, he rushed 88 times for 315 yards and a touchdown while […]

Doug Middleton Out For The Season

New York Jets safety Doug Middleton (pectoral), who was filling in for Marcus Maye in Week 7 against the Vikings, suffered a torn pectoral and is out for the season, according to a source. The Jets will now be down to their third safety in Terrence Brooks. Gang Green was also without cornerbacks Trumaine Johnson […]

Isaiah Crowell Can't Get It Done On Sunday

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell ran for a subpar 29 yards off of 11 carries in the loss to the Vikings on Sunday. Despite coming in with an injury designation as a result of a bum ankle, the 25-year-old was able to go, even though he wasn't able to get much done nor […]

Sam Darnold Struggles Against Minnesota

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold had a tough afternoon as his team fell to the Vikings in a lopsided loss on Sunday. The rookie connected on only 17 of his 42 pass attempts, ending the day with only one touchdown and a miserable three interceptions. The Jets were missing wide receiver Quincy Enunwa (ankle) […]

Bilal Powell Won't Return In Week 7

New York Jets running back Bilal Powell (neck) left the game early in Week 7 against the Vikings and will not return. Powell ran the ball five times for 20 yards and caught one pass for five yards before exiting. With Powell out the rest of the way, Isaiah Crowell should see most of the […]

Isaiah Crowell Active Against Vikings

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (foot) is active in Week 7 against the Vikings. Crowell was always expected to play, but he'll be a touchdown-dependant RB3/flex in a tough matchup with Minnesota's defensive front. Expect him to have a near-even workload with Bilal Powell once again. With Jets defensive backs Trumaine Johnson (quadriceps), […]

Week 7 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football

Unless you play in a league with a Week 17 playoff round, which...no, no, no, stop it...then Week 7 represents the midway part of the fantasy football regular season, which feels shocking.

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 7) - Targets and Avoids

Week 6 wrapped up with the Green Bay Packers giving survivor entries a huge scare. It looked like the Packers were done. Their defense was so bad allowing 7.3 yards per play, yet Aaron Rodgers did it again. He should win the MVP. For those of you saying Pat Mahomes should win, they were a […]

It will still be business as usual, however, as he […]

Another week in the books fantasy football lovers and it’s the same old Tennessee Titans who cannot buy an offensive snap without Marcus Mariota being greeted with a defensive player in his face.
