New York Jets WR Omar Cooper Jr. and WR Isaiah Williams are "engaged in a battle" for the No. 3 receiver job, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com.
Huddle Up: Cooper has been unable to secure the No. 3 receiving role thus far, and while he still has plenty of long-term appeal, his chances of making an immediate impact seem questionable. At best, Cooper looks like a late-round lottery ticket in redraft leagues.

New York Jets TE Kenyon Sadiq (hernia) is on track to be ready for Week 1, according to head coach Aaron Glenn.
Huddle Up: Sadiq has been sidelined for most of training camp because of the injury but should be available if he returns to practice in the near future. He will probably see a few targets each game but is probably a No. 2 fantasy tight end at this time.

New York Jets RB Breece Hall (groin) should be available for the Week 1 game, according to head coach Aaron Glenn.
Huddle Up: Hall was expected to be sidelined for several weeks because of the injury, but he should be able to handle his normal workload if he can take part in practice leading up to the game. He should have a big role in the Jets offense this season and will be a weekly starting option in all leagues.

New York Jets TE Mason Taylor caught his only target for 10 yards during the preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers Friday, Aug. 21.
Huddle Up: Taylor had a couple of decent outings as a rookie, and while the addition of Geno Smith could help the passing attack overall, Taylor will now have to compete with fellow tight end Kenyon Sadiq. Unless Sadiq were to miss extended time, it seems unlikely that Taylor will have enough usage to be a viable fantasy starter.

New York Jets WR Garrett Wilson caught his only target for 10 yards during the preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers Friday, Aug. 21.
Huddle Up: Wilson will try to rebound from a injury-plagued 2025 season and return to the form that saw him begin his career with three straight 1,000-yard receiving seasons. Serviceable quarterback play from Geno Smith will certainly help the cause, and Wilson can be considered a WR3 with upside.

New York Jets QB Geno Smith completed all seven of his passes for 65 yards and a touchdown during the preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers Friday, Aug. 21.
Huddle Up: While Smith is far from a franchise quarterback at this stage of his career, but he will likely be an upgrade at the position for the Jets compared to last season. That being said, Smith will be a low-end QB2, at best, for fantasy owners.

New York Jets WR Omar Cooper Jr. has been struggling to create consistent separation during practices and has also been inconsistent with his fundamentals, in the opinion of JetsWire's Justin Melo.
Huddle Up: Cooper was expected to compete for the No. 3 receiver job during camp, but the Jets may consider easing him into the offense during the regular season. He could be a late round pick in deeper leagues but will not be a starting option most weeks.

New York Giants QB Geno Smith (ankle) is scheduled to be the starting quarterback for the preseason game Friday, Aug. 21, according to sources.
Huddle Up: Smith has been dealing with an injury but will likely play a series or two against the Pittsburgh Steelers. He is on track for the start of the regular season as long as he does not suffer a setback and should be considered a No. 2 quarterback in fantasy leagues.

New York Jets QB Geno Smith's (ankle) availability for the preseason game Friday, Aug. 21, is still uncertain at this point, according to head coach Aaron Glenn.
Huddle Up: The team can be cautious with Smith, so there is a good chance that he does not play in the upcoming preseason game. He will have several weeks to recover and should be ready for the start of the regular season. He will be a No. 2 quarterback in fantasy leagues.

Updating an earlier report, New York Jets RB Breece Hall (groin) got confirmation that the groin injury he suffered in practice on Monday, Aug. 17, was minor, per SNY.tv's Connor Hughes, who adds that the team will be cautious with Hall. It's believed he will be ready to go in Week 1.
Huddle Up: Hall is among the few desirable options on the Jets and a legitimate RB2 for fantasy owners. We'll see how much he does the rest of camp and in the lead up to Week 1, but for the time being it appears he has dodged a bullet. Breathe easy, Hall owners.

New York Jets QB Geno Smith (ankle) participated in practice Monday, Aug. 17, but appeared to be favoring his ankle during drills.
Huddle Up: Smith did not play in the first preseason game because of the injury, but it does not appear to be a serious issue for him. He will open the regular season as the starter for the Jets but is only a No. 2 quarterback in fantasy leagues.

New York Jets WR Garrett Wilson (illness) did not participate in practice Monday, Aug. 17, because of an illness.
Huddle Up: Wilson may miss a few practices, but he should be ready for the start of the regular season. He is the main target in the passing game and will be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues.

New York Jets RB Breece Hall (groin) suffered a groin strain Monday, Aug. 17, according to head coach Aaron Glenn. Hall will be evaluated, but Glenn didn't think it was a major deal.
Huddle Up: Hall's ADP is 32, which places him in the back end of the third round as an RB2. He has a lengthy injury history, and you'll need to monitor this. Braelon Allen should remain handcuffed to him in fantasy.

Updating a previous report, New York Jets QB Geno Smith (foot) is considered day to day due to foot soreness which kept him out of the team's preseason opener Friday, Aug. 14, according to head coach Aaron Glenn.
Huddle Up: Smith's next opportunity to see preseason game action will come against the Pittsburgh Steelers Friday, Aug. 21. The 35-year-old veteran should be viewed as a QB2 option in all fantasy formats.

New York Jets RB Breece Hall rushed four times for 16 yards in the preseason game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Friday, Aug. 14.
Huddle Up: After securing a new contract, Hall should remain one of the main weapons in the New York offense this season. An improved passing game would help raise his ceiling, but even if the offense continues to struggle overall, Hall has shown he can be a volume-based RB2.

New York Jets WR Garrett Wilson caught two of his three targets for 32 yards in the preseason game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Friday, Aug. 14.
Huddle Up: After topping 1,000 yards in each of his first three seasons in the NFL, injuries derailed Wilson's 2025 campaign, limiting him to seven games. The quarterback situation in New York leaves something to be desired, but Wilson has shown he can produce solid numbers when healthy. He should at least provide WR3 production.

New York Jets WR Omar Cooper Jr. has shown some inconsistencies during training camp, but wide receivers coach Shawn Jefferson said that is normal for a rookie.
Huddle Up: Cooper was expected to have a solid role during his rookie season, but he may be eased into the offense early in the season if he does not perform well during preseason games. He can still be a late round option in some deeper leagues but is unlikely to be a starting fantasy option most weeks.

New York Jets TE Kenyon Sadiq (core) will miss "a couple of weeks," but will be ready for the start of the 2026 season, according to coach Aaron Glenn.
Huddle Up: Sadiq missing what could be all of the preseason could delay his direct involvement in the offense. He won't be worth installing into lineups unless it is a TE premium league until his place in the offense can be established.

New York Jets QB Geno Smith has been testing all three levels of the defense and really wants to push the ball downfield.
Huddle Up: This can be a gift and a curse for fantasy purposes. It sounds like he wants to throw for a whole lot of yards and a whole lot of INTs. Smith is a matchup play as a QB2.

New York Jets TE Kenyon Sadiq (abdomen) suffered a setback in his recovery from hernia surgery and will miss time. Head coach Aaron Glenn is confident Sadiq will be ready for the regular season.
Huddle Up: He's missing important reps, and that will hinder of of the upside he had as a low-end TE1 or high-end TE2. He'll be a TE2 option, but you may not see the upside bloom until midseason.

New York Jets TE Kenyon Sadiq (hernia) did not participate in practice Monday, Aug. 3, because of a scheduled day off.
Huddle Up: Sadiq is coming off surgery this offseason, so he will likely receive a few days off during camp. He is expected to be the starting tight end right away for the Jets and can be a No. 2 tight end in most fantasy leagues.

New York Jets QB Geno Smith completed all of his passes in both seven-on-seven drills and team drills during practice Saturday, Aug. 1.
Huddle Up: Smith will be the Jets starting quarterback for the second time in his career this season and will have some good offensive weapons available in the passing game. He should be a No. 2 quarterback in fantasy leagues.

Updating previous reports, New York Jets QB Geno Smith won't be charged from a June 21 incident in which a woman claimed domestic violence. The woman, a longtime friend and casual intimate parter of Smith's who provides paid childcare for his son in her multifaceted role as his "manager," did not show up to two appointments to provide a sworn statement to police and later had her attorney inform officers that she would not be providing one.
Huddle Up: Since the criminal case won't continue, it's hard to see the league disciplining him as well. Smith remains a midrange QB2 best utilized in two-QB leagues.

New York Jets WR Omar Cooper Jr. was the team's 'most impressive rookie in the spring' and has all but solidified a spot in the team's three-receiver package, in the opinion of Rich Cimini of ESPN on Monday, June 29.
Huddle Up: Cooper, the team's 30th overall pick in the first round, should give the Jets a serious talent infusion next to Garrett Wilson on a Jets team that sorely needs talent and skill. Despite that, the Jets' offense isn't a great one to tether your hopes to in fantasy football. Consider Cooper bench depth at wide receiver with the hopes that he can show enough promise to be fantasy relevant in his rookie season.

New York Jets first-round pick TE Kenyon Sadiq (abdomen) will be ready for training camp.
Huddle Up: Sadiq had hernia surgery before the NFL Draft and slid a little because of it. The team plans to use him as a mismatch option due to his speed and explosiveness. He'll be an intriguing TE2 in fantasy.

New York Jets WR Adonai Mitchell has "solidified himself as the No. 2 receiver" with his performance this spring, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com.
Huddle Up: Mitchell had a couple of solid outings after being acquired by the Jets last season, and it looks like he will be a steady part of the offense in 2026. Granted, he probably won't deliver consistent production in a Geno Smith-led offense, but Mitchell is worth grabbing as a WR5.

New York Jets QB Geno Smith is being investigated by Davie, FL police for assault allegations stemming from an incident that took place on Sunday, according to a source on Monday, June 22.
Huddle Up: Smith was signed in the offseason with the expectation of being the Jets' starting quarterback for 2026, More news will come out, but if he's available for Week 1, he'll be a low-end streaming quarterback and a mid-range QB2 in 2-QB formats.

New York Jets WR Adonai Mitchell showed a rapport with QB Geno Smith, and his grasp of the system allowed him to exhibit vertical speed.
Huddle Up: Keep him in mind for a WR5 flyer late in drafts. The team doesn't have a lot around him, but that could benefit him in terms of targets.

New York Jets WR Garrett Wilson "appears to be in mid-season form" based on his performance during minicamp, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com.
Huddle Up: Injuries limited Wilson to just seven games last year, but he topped 1,000 yards in each of his three previous seasons. While the quarterback situation in New York is still not ideal, the addition of Geno Smith should at least allow Wilson to provide WR3 numbers.
