Robert Saleh: Fired from the New York Jets
1 day ago

Robert Saleh has been fired by the New York Jets, according to Adam Schefter.

After a loss to the Vikings in London on Sunday, the Jets owner, Woody Johnson, has decided that the franchise is moving in a different direction, after Saleh’s 20-36 record in 5 years. Defensive Coordinator, Jeff Ulbrich, will be the interim head coach.

 

The impact of this fantasy-wise is hard to know, considering Saleh was a defensive-minded head coach. Nate Hackett is still the OC (for now), and they still have 40-year-old Aaron Rodgers at the reins. The offensive output in the last 5 games to start the season has produced similar results as last year, so this firing makes little sense this early in the season with their “new” QB.

 

Watch for any news of Hackett’s firing, as that will have a direct impact on the skill players involved. The Jets’ defense, which has performed fairly well this year, despite key injuries, may take a slight hit from Saleh’s departure.

Mike Williams to Start Camp on the PUP List
2 months ago

The New York Jets have placed wide receiver Mike Williams on the PUP list prior to the start of camp.

Mike Williams is set to begin training camp on the PUP list. The Jets signed the former Chargers wide receiver during the offseason to a one-year $15 million deal. Williams is still recovering from an ACL injury he suffered in Week 3 last season.

 

Williams has tallied up 309 receptions in seven seasons with the Chargers, for 4,806 yards, and 31 touchdowns. The veteran receiver has eclipsed the 1,000 yards receiving plateau twice in his career while having one double-digit touchdown season.  Before last season, Williams was averaging 55.8 receptions, 892.4 yards, and six touchdowns in his five previous seasons.

 

Williams should be ready for Week 1, and be an excellent complement to Garrett Wilson this year. He provides Aaron Rodgers, who’s returning from an Achilles injury with another weapon to throw to. On UnderDog, Williams currently has an ADP of 128.5 coming off the board as WR60. If your draft is soon, fantasy managers should look to draft him around the 11th round. Then after the draft you can stash him on your IR spot and pick up another young high-upside player to see how things shake out during camp.

 

Jets Open 21-day Window for Aaron Rodgers to return
10 months ago

The New York Jets have officially opened up the 21-day window for Aaron Rodgers to return from injured reserve.

How in the blue hell has Aaron Rodgers been cleared to return to football activities after tearing his Achilles 79 days ago? Well, here we are. Rodgers returned to practice today and was slinging it around to his Jets teammates.

It seems inevitable at this point that Rodgers will return before the season’s end in order to give the Jets a final push to try and make the payoffs. If fantasy managers have not done so already, you should try to add Rodgers now and stash him in your IR spot, especially in two-quarterback and super-flex leagues.

The Jets probably have no shot of making the playoffs, but fantasy managers who have lost their starters for the season may have a glimmer of hope with Rodgers as a league winner. Rodgers has a very favorable schedule for Week 13 through Week 16 with match-ups against the Falcons, Texans, Dolphins, and Commanders.

Aaron Rodgers Tears Achilles, Out For Season
1 year ago

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles tendon on the first drive with his new team and will miss the entire 2023 season.

On just his fourth snap from scrimmage with his new team. the 40-year-old veteran’s cleat got stuck in the turf at MetLife Stadium and the rest is history. Rodgers was carried off the field and onto the cart before completing a single pass for the Jets. His 2023 season is over.

Zach Wilson stepped into backup duties and while the Jets got the victory, it was despite Wilson’s play. The former second-overall pick in the 2021 draft looked exactly like the QB the Jets have been terrified to play. A circus catch by Garrett Wilson in the end zone helped Zach Wilson get to 14 of 21 for 140 yards, 1 TD, and 1 INT on just over 5 air yards per attempt against the Bills. Once the severity of Rodgers’ injury was confirmed, Head Coach Robert Saleh said Zach Wilson will be the Jets starter for the rest of the season. However, according to The Atheltic’s Dianna Russini, the Jets are already rumored to be reaching out to veteran QBs for help.
