Player Outlook
The Jets DST has the potential to be a top-five Fantasy option this season and is worth drafting with a late-round pick in all leagues. In 2022, the Jets defense was third in the NFL in points allowed at 302, trailing only the 49ers and Bills. New York also managed 45 sacks, 12 interceptions, four fumble recoveries and one defensive touchdown, but there's reason for optimism with the Jets DST under coach Robert Saleh. The secondary for the Jets is impressive, led by sophomore cornerback Sauce Gardner, and Quinnen Williams is among the best interior defensive linemen in the NFL. Fantasy managers should consider the Jets DST a No. 1 option and worth drafting with a late-round selection in all leagues.

  • Jets' Tony Adams: Remains sidelined

    Rotowire
    Adams (hamstring) will not practice Wednesday, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports. Adams suffered the injury in the team's Week 2 loss to the Cowboys and hasn't been able to take the field since. The Illinois product will likely need to get in at least a limited practice Thursday or Friday at the latest if he's going to suit up Sunday against the Chiefs. If he remains out, Adrian Amos should draw the start once again at free safety.
