Fantasy Impact: Williams actually played with a cast on his fractured hand in Week 14 against the Jaguars and plans to do so for the team's remaining three games. Williams has four sacks and 47 solo tackles on the season.

Fantasy Impact: Oliver will not be eligible to return this season. He totaled 55 tackles and three pass breakups, appearing in 14 games. He is set to head back to free agency this offseason.


Azareye'h Thomas has been ruled for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. (Source: Brian Costello on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Thomas was unable to practice all week. The Jets corner back room will be a little short-handed as a result.


Stone Smartt (concussion) logged a limited practice session on Thursday. (Source: New York Jets on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: A concussion may leave Smartt sidelined in Week 15, as he has yet to be cleared from the NFL's concussion protocols. Mason Taylor (neck) is also at risk of being sidelined this week, so it looks like Jeremy Ruckert may see more work than usual against the Jaguars this week.


Adrian Martinez signs with Jets

The Jets signed QB Adrian Martinez.

Fantasy Impact: Martinez will add depth with both Tyrod Taylor (groin) and QB Justin Fields (knee) missing practice on Wednesday.


Marcelino McCrary-Ball has been ruled out for Week 14 against the Dolphins. (Source: Around the NFL on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: McCrary-Ball was designated to return from IR a couple of weeks ago. He is still working his way back from a hamstring injury.


Jarvis Brownlee Jr. has been ruled out for Week 14 against the Dolphins. (Source: Around the NFL on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: It is not ideal for Brownlee to be ruled out so early in the week. He can be considered as week-to-week for now as he battles a hip injury.


Jermaine Johnson II (ankle) missed New York's practice on Wednesday. (Source: Rich Cimini on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Johnson missed Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury of some kind. It could leave him sidelined for Sunday's game, which would be less than ideal for the Jets ahead of a matchup against the Dolphins.

Khalil Herbert is inactive for Week 12 vs the Ravens. (Source: Brian Costello on X)

Fantasy Impact: Herbert was not on the injury report this week, so it looks to be a healthy scratch. Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis will man the backfield.


Tyler Johnson inactive Week 12

Fantasy Impact: Johnson was not seen on the injury report this week, so this looks to be a healthy scratch.


Harrison Phillips was back at practice on Thursday. (Source: Rich Cimini on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Phillips missed practice on Wednesday to open the week. His return on Thursday puts him on track to be good to go for Sunday's game against the Ravens.


Kene Nwangwu (concussion) fully practiced for the Jets on Thursday. (Source: New York Jets on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Nwangwu fully practiced for another day on Thursday, putting him in line to return to the lineup in Week 10. He will likely be relegated to a special-teams role if that's the case, so he remains off of the fantasy radar either way.


Andre Cisco (pectoral) will be out for the season as he will undergo shoulder surgery. (Source: Rich Cimini on X)

Fantasy Impact: Cisco’s absence will hurt an already struggling defense. This should open up things for Isaiah Oliver for those in IDP leagues.


Josh Reynolds (hip) placed on IR

The Jets placed Josh Reynolds on injured reserve. (Source: Adam Schefter on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Reynolds had been ruled out for Week 8 on Saturday. He will now miss at least the next four games.


Sauce Gardner (concussion) has been ruled out against the Bengals on Sunday. (Source: Ian Rapoport on X)

Fantasy Impact: Gardner’s absence will greatly help the Bengals pass catching options of Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. The Jets will do what they can to limit them, but they are struggling on defense already as it is.


Michael Carter II (concussion) is out against the Panthers on Sunday. (Source: New York Jets on X)

Fantasy Impact: With Carter out, Isaiah Oliver will get some additional snaps on defense.


Brandon Stephens (neck) is active for Week 6 for the New York Jets against the Denver Broncos. (Source: New York Jets on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Stephens is good to go after clearing through pregame warmups without any setbacks after entering the weekend carrying a questionable designation, boosting a Jets secondary that should be tested often by the Denver passing attack Sunday.


Allen Lazard active for Week 2

Allen Lazard is active for Week 2 for the New York Jets against the Buffalo Bills. (Source: Brian Costello on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Lazard will suit up with Josh Reynolds sidelined, giving quarterback Justin Fields a veteran target against the Buffalo defense for head coach Aaron Glenn Sunday.
