Tyler Johnson News
Wednesday, November 12, 8:56 PM
New York Jets wide receiver Tyler Johnson is due for an elevated workload in Week 11's road clash with the New England Patriots. The sixth-year pro notched back-to-back three-catch efforts ahead of his bye week, posting at least 60 yards in each contest, although he failed to reel in his lone target in last weekend's win over the Browns, while Justin Fields netted 42 passing yards. Things won't be much easier against their division rivals, considering New England has allowed the sixth-fewest points (19.2) and eighth-fewest yards (306.2) per game. Johnson might be an ok flier in DFS formats, but shouldn't be on fantasy managers' radars in conventional lineup leagues. Even with the suspected uptick in volume, an up-and-down Jets' offense limits the 27-year-old's ceiling. He'll wind up as RotoBaller's PPR WR77 for his outing with the Patriots.

Omar Cooper Jr. News
Friday, October 9, 6:49 AM
New York Jets wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. (ankle) is still on injured reserve, but the rookie is getting closer to being eligible to return. Cooper sprained his ankle in Week 1 against Tennessee and was placed on IR on Sept. 19, keeping him out through Sunday's game against Cleveland. Week 6 at New England is the earliest he can play, although the Jets haven't announced a timetable. The first-round pick played only five offensive snaps in his debut but turned his lone target into a 30-yard catch-and-run. New York's receiving situation has changed somewhat during his absence. Adonai Mitchell (finger) has missed two straight games and hasn't practiced this week, while Isaiah Williams has taken on more work. Tim Patrick has also returned to practice after opening the season on injured reserve. Cooper was selected 30th overall and should eventually get an opportunity to compete for meaningful snaps, but his role upon returning remains uncertain. He's worth considering as an IR stash in deeper fantasy leagues, particularly for managers who can afford to wait.
