Jets offense struggles vs. Cowboys
Fantasy owners had great expectations for the New York Jets offense heading into the 2023 NFL season. Unfortunately, things look very different with ZACH WILSON at the helm than they were… More expected to look with AARON RODGERS at the controls. Wilson was just 12 of 27 for 170 yards and three interceptions in Sunday’s loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The Jets managed just one big play in the game, a 68-yard touchdown from Wilson to wide receiver GARRETT WILSON. The running game struggled as well, with DALVIN COOK and BREECE HALL both failing to do much on behalf of their fantasy owners. Less

Jets cut RB Knight
The New York Jets deep and talented running back room has one less rusher after the team released young running back ZONOVAN KNIGHT on Monday. Knight seemingly won’t be without work… More for long, with several teams reportedly interested in claiming him off waivers.

Around the NFL: Dalvin Cook
Evidently the Jets aren't 100 percent confident in Breece Hall's ACL recovery after all. Or GM Aaron Rodgers just wants to make sure the team has plenty of options. Whatever the case, the Jets have another high-caliber running back, after bringing in Dalvin Cook. more »

It was a little odd when Minnesota was so willing to release Dalvin Cook, and it's been a little odd that nobody has stepped up to sign him yet. But both of those facts seem a little less odd after the recent news involving him. more »

Veteran Cincinnati Bengals running back JOE MIXON agreed to a restructured contract that will pay him less heading into the 2023 season, but the new deal keeps him in town for… More another year.
