Who Should I Start? Jacques Patrick or Salvon Ahmed

Monday, January 8, 7:41 PM

The New York Jets signed running back Jacques Patrick, wide receivers Malik Taylor and Lance McCutcheon, defensive linemen Stephen Jones and Marquiss Spencer, offensive lineman Vitaliy Gurman and Eze Obinna, cornerback Tae Hayes and kicker Austin Seibert to futures deals on Monday. Patrick was cut by the Tennessee Titans on Oct. 24 and signed with the Jets practice squad on Dec. 19. The 27-year-old has only played in two NFL games, back in 2021 with the San Francisco 49ers. Taylor got into two games for the Jets in 2023 and caught two passes for 13 yards. McCutcheon was cut by the Houston Texans in early October and latched onto the team's practice squad on Oct. 24. The 24-year-old didn't appear in a single game for New York and had zero catches on five targets in 10 games for the Los Angeles Rams in 2022.

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (foot) was placed on Injured Reserve on Tuesday with a foot injury that he suffered in the Week 11 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He'll now be forced to miss at least the next four games. In a corresponding move, the Dolphins promoted wide receiver Robbie Chosen from the practice squad to the active roster. Miami's backfield is suddenly short-handed with rookie De'Von Achane (knee) also aggravating a knee injury that landed him on Injured Reserve from Weeks 6-9. Achane's injury isn't believed to be serious, but fantasy managers looking for running back help may want to consider adding Jeff Wilson Jr. off the waiver wire heading into Week 12 action. Raheem Mostert remains the team's lead back. Ahmed scored his first receiving touchdown of the year on Sunday with Achane hurt and Wilson a healthy scratch.
