  Jets | Tyrod Taylor to start in Week 3    Wed Sep 17, 12:33 PM

New York Jets QB Tyrod Taylor will start against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3.

Footballguys view: The Buccaneers present a tough challenge for the Jets this week. Taylor has a ton of experience and can use his legs to escape pressure. That makes him a consideration for Fantasy GMs in deeper superflex leagues. Adjust your expectations for WR Garrett Wilson this week as he might be best considered a WR2 with Taylor under center.

  Jets | Justin Fields ruled out    Wed Sep 17, 12:31 PM

New York Jets QB Justin Fields (concussion) was ruled out for Week 3.

Footballguys view: Fields sustained the first concussion of his pro career last week and is unable to get through the league's protocol in time to play in Week 3. That means the Jets turn to Tyrod Taylor as the starter. Taylor is a runner which makes him an option in deeper superflex leagues. Fantasy GMs with Garrett Wilson might think of him more as a WR2 with Taylor in the lineup.

  Jets | Justin Fields needs to practice to play    Tue Sep 16, 11:24 AM

Updating previous reports, New York Jets QB Justin Fields (concussion) would need to practice no later than Thursday, Sept. 18, in order for head coach Aaron Glenn to be comfortable starting him in Week 3.

Footballguys view: This was Fields' first documented concussion in the NFL, though he did have one at Ohio State. The NFL has a five-step protocol for concussions, and an independent neurologist must clear the player before returning to action. Tyrod Taylor, who missed the entire preseason due to arthroscopic knee surgery, has 58 career starts, but he hasn't started a game since 2023 with the New York Giants. He rode the Jets' bench last season, behind Aaron Rodgers, appearing only in mop-up situations. We'll be following Fields' progress closely in the coming days.

  Jets | Justin Fields in concussion protocol    Mon Sep 15, 10:31 AM

New York Jets QB Justin Fields (concussion) is in the concussion protocol and out of practice Monday, Sept. 15. He will have to practice in order to play in Week 3, head coach Aaron Glenn said. QB Tyrod Taylor is being prepared to start this week in case he is needed.

Footballguys view: Coach Aaron Glenn said Fields will continue to be evaluated. As previously noted, if Fields is unable to play Sunday at Tampa Bay, veteran backup Tyrod Taylor would start for New York. The Jets' next practice is Wednesday, and Glenn acknowledged Fields would need to be cleared from the concussion protocol and get in some time on the field if he's going to play against the Buccaneers.

  Jets | Justin Fields In The Concussion Protocol    Sun Sep 14, 09:02 PM

Jets quarterback Justin Fields left in the fourth quarter of the 30-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills with a concussion.

Footballguys view: Tyrod Taylor replaced Fields with 12:03 remaining in the game, and the Jets were losing 30-3. Fields will be evaluated during the week, and it's uncertain if he'll be ready to play in the Jets' next game at Tampa Bay next Sunday. Taylor, who went 7 of 11 for 56 yards and a touchdown in his relief role, would get the start if Fields isn't cleared.

New York Jets RB Breece Hall rushed for 29 yards on 10 carries against the Buffalo Bills in Week 2. He also caught two passes for nine yards during the game.

Footballguys view: Hall and the Jets running game came crashing back to earth even though the Bills were missing Ed Oliver on the defensive line. It might be that the Steelers run defense was the reason for Hall's massive Week 1 more than a renaissance from Hall in a Justin Fields led offense designed by Tanner Engstrand. Hall will face a tough Bucs run defense and is not an automatic Week 3 play.

  Jets | Justin Fields struggles before injury    Sun Sep 14, 04:51 PM

New York Jets QB Justin Fields (head) went 3-for-11 for 27 yards, zero touchdowns and zero interceptions against the Buffalo Bills in Week 2 before leaving the game to be evaluated for a concussion. He also rushed for 49 yards on five carries during the game.

Footballguys view: Fields did not at all look like the more confident, aware, and resourceful passer he was in Week 1 against Pittsburgh. The injury made it sting even more if you trusted him in your lineup, but the bigger concern is that the Week 1 result was more about the Steelers pass defense than Fields turning the corner in his development.

  Jets | Tyrod Taylor throws TD in relief    Sun Sep 14, 04:49 PM

New York Jets QB Tyrod Taylor went 7-for-11 for 56 yards and one touchdown against the Buffalo Bills in Week 2 after replacing QB Justin Fields (head). He also rushed for 21 yards on three carries during the game.

Footballguys view: We'll see if Fields can get cleared in time to face Tampa next week. If not, Taylor will be streamable with his running ability that the likelihood that the Jets have to pass to move the ball against the Bucs stout defensive front that shut down the Falcons running game in Week 1.

QB Tyrod Taylor has taken over under center. Fields left with the unaffiliated neurotrauma consultant, which indicates a possible concussion.

New York Jets RB Breece Hall faces the Buffalo Bills in Week 2, and Hall is averaging 6.42 yards per carry in four career games against the Bills.

Footballguys view: Hall looked great in Week 1 against the Steelers with 107 yards rushing. This week against the Bills, we like Hall as an RB2 with RB1 upside.

  Jets | Coach explains Allen Lazard's absence    Mon Sep 8, 02:21 PM

New York Jets WR Allen Lazard was not active for Week 1 game because he missed two weeks during training camp, according to head coach Aaron Glenn.

Footballguys view: "We wanted to make sure that he was up to speed on everything we were doing," Glenn explained. "We'll see how that goes this week." Remember, Lazard wasn't on the injury report, so he was a healthy scratch, which, as Heavy.com suggests, comes with a negative connotation. Glenn's answer is either an attempt to diffuse something more telling, or it could be the truth. If Lazard makes his debut in Week 2, this will all be forgotten. If not, something is up.

  Jets | Garrett Wilson plays well in Week 1    Sun Sep 7, 06:15 PM

New York Jets WR Garrett Wilson caught seven passes for 95 yards and one touchdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1. He was targeted nine times during the game.

Footballguys view: Wilson had the ball popped free by Jalen Ramsey on the game's last competitive play, but overall it was a very auspicious game for his fantasy prospects. He was a strong WR1 even though Justin Fields only threw 22 times, and Fields looked better as a creator in the passing game after the play breaks down. Wilson has the makings of a big hit at a third round ADP heading into a matchup against the banged up Bills corners.

New York Jets RB Breece Hall rushed for 107 yards on 19 carries against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1. He also caught two passes for 38 yards during the game.

Footballguys view: Hall was vultured at the goal line by Braelon Allen and Justin Fields, but otherwise this was everything you wanted after he slid down the board this summer. Hall looked like the back that was going in the top 5 of drafts last year, and Justin Fields was more than good enough to keep this offense on track. This all with the Jets losing their top offensive lineman before the season began. Hall would go multiple rounds higher today than he did last week in drafts. Congratulations if you believed in him.

  Jets | Justin Fields accounts for three TDs    Sun Sep 7, 06:03 PM

New York Jets QB Justin Fields went 16-for-22 for 218 yards and one touchdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1. He also rushed for 48 yards and two touchdowns on 12 carries during the game.

Footballguys view: Fields was better at creating in the passing game outside of structure and overall looked more calm and dialed in as a quarterback in his debut as a Jet. He was connecting well with college teammate Garrett Wilson, and the Jets clearly want to rely on him as a runner near the goal line. Fields had one of the best outputs of any quarterback in Week 1, and he would be drafted earlier than he was in August if leagues were selected now.
