Justin Fields a Shaky Start Sans Top Target

Friday, October 17, 8:36 PM

New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields will be a riskier option than usual for Week 7's meeting with the visiting Carolina Panthers. The 26-year-old has done well for the most part to keep his fantasy value afloat via the run game in 2025. Still, he's likely to be without his primary weapon in the passing game, wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee), after a fantasy dud against the Broncos in London. Even if Wilson can suit up, it's unclear in what capacity he'll be available after a week's worth of missed practices. Carolina's defense hasn't given up too much yardage and is particularly stout against the run (94.5 yards per game [ninth-fewest]). However, they're yielding the twelfth-most points per contest (24.3), so if Fields can get the offense rolling, there is an opportunity for some fantasy goodness. The fifth-year pro may be relied upon to create more frequently on his own this Sunday, but the loss of Wilson makes him a fringey QB1. Fields is officially RotoBaller's QB12 for Week 7.
