Giants fire HC Brian Daboll

Jets head coach Aaron Glenn has avoided naming a starting quarterback ahead of the team’s last two games and he plans to make it three in a row this week.

Glenn ended his opening statement at Monday’s press conference by letting reporters know that they shouldn’t bother with questions about whether Justin Fields or Tyrod Taylor will get the start against the Patriots on Thursday night.

“Please don’t ask me anything about the quarterbacks,” Glenn said. “You know I’m not going to tell you and I don’t want to waste my time when it comes to that, when it comes to who’s starting.”

Fields has started each of the last two Jets games, both of which were wins. But, Fields was only 6-of-11 for 54 yards in Sunday’s win over the Browns with 42 of the yards coming on a dump-off that running back Breece Hall broke for a touchdown, the story pointed out. The Jets were also helped by two special team touchdowns. The Jets play on Thursday night against the Patriots so the question will have to be answered a little sooner this week.

Coach Glenn said WR Garrett Wilson will undergo further evaluation on his knee injury.

Wilson left the game early with the knee injury without recording a catch. Even if Wilson can play in Week 11, it's going to be tough to trust him in fantasy lineups when you factor in the injury and the play of QB Justin Fields. We'll likely know more as the week goes on, but Wilson owners will probably want to make other plans for his lineup spot, especially since the Jets play the Patriots on Thursday night this week.

But Justin Jefferson’s lack of energy cannot be ignored. He is the face of this franchise. His consistent brilliance has set a standard of expectation much higher than what he delivered Sunday.

The numbers Jefferson is putting up this season are nowhere near what he is used to. In his first five seasons in the league, he averaged 95.5 receiving yards per game and eight touchdowns per season. This season, with a young J.J. McCarthy and Carson Wentz as his two quarterbacks, he is averaging 76.2 yards and has scored only two touchdowns in nine games.

The story pointed to some instances where Jefferson would normally bring in a catch for a big play or even a touchdown, but it didn't happen in Week 10. Jefferson finished with four catches for 37 yards against the Ravens. The author said you can probably count the number of bad games Jefferson has had in his career on one hand, but unfortunately this past week was one of them. The author also pointed to a lack of sharp routes run and a lack of pursuit after an interception. It could be frustration as McCarthy was up and down. The author even said the Ravens were clutching and grabbing him a bit, too. No matter, fantasy owners have likely been disappointed with Jefferson's overall fantasy production this season for where he was drafted. Hopefully there is some emphasis by the Vikings to get Jefferson more involved going forward.
