Michael Carter (ankle) placed on injured reserve

yesterday · 5:52 PM EST

Week 15 will be the first eligible return date for the rookie out of North Carolina. Carter had found himself in a fantasy relevant role despite New York’s struggles. The high-ankle sprain is one to monitor as his availability may not be predictable.

Fantasy Impact:

The Jets will deploy a committee of Tevin Coleman and Ty Johnson for Zach Wilson’s backfield in a matchup against the Houston Texans.

Logan Thomas (hamstring) expected to return for Week 12

yesterday · 1:41 PM EST

Ricky Seals-Jones has been ruled doubtful heading into Sunday which opens up a large workload for Thomas who has missed the previous six games. The Monday Night showdown against Seattle allows Washington until Sunday to make Thomas' activation offcial.

Fantasy Impact:

In a positive matchup with the opportunity to see 90-100% of snaps, Thomas enters Week 12 as a low TE1 option.

A.J. Brown (chest) placed on injured reserve

yesterday · 1:35 PM EST

The designation leaves Week 15 as the first eligible return date for Brown who was already ruled out of this Sunday's game. He will join Julio Jones on the reserve list. Despite the injuries, Tennessee has been on a roll lately but will face a stout New England defense this week.

Fantasy Impact:

Chester Rogers, Nick Ikhine-Westbrook, and Dez Fitzpatrick will be Ryan Tannelhill's top options in a tough matchup against the Patriots.
