Jets continue making moves, and here’s another: they reached an agreement today to bring back RB Ty Johnson on a one-year deal.

Related Players: Zonovan Knight, Michael Carter

Johnson has done most of his work as a third-down receiving threat since joining the Jets in 2020. He's a special teams contributor and shouldn't in any way impede on Breece Hall's snaps.

Jets coach Robert Saleh tells reporters that RB Michael Carter (ankle) is doubtful for Sunday.

Zonovan Knight (2022 UDFA) came out of nowhere last week to parlay his first career snaps into over 100 yards from scrimmage, but it will be interesting to see how the team incorporates the backfield with a full week of planning. Ty Johnson will likely rotate into third downs and James Robinson may finally find some utilization after spending his time since the trade on the bench. Knight would be an iffy RB3 if Carter eventually does miss the game.

No sign of Jets running back Michael Carter (ankle) on the practice field today.

It may be a little presumptive to give James Robinson the "squeaky wheel" narrative when he hasn't been on the field, but he has been very vocal about his unhappiness over being a healthy scratch even though the team traded for him. If the team decides to give in to his demands to see some playing time, this backfield will be an abject disaster of a three-headed monster in Week 13 if Michael Carter is forced to miss the game.

Michael Carter (ankle) won't practice today, but Saleh still hopeful for Sunday.

Carter is dealing with an ankle sprain and despite not going in practice today, the team thinks he still has a shot to play against the Vikings in an early Sunday game. If Carter can't go, Knight likely sees a decent workload and is a popular name on the waiver wire right now. Knight would seem to still have a role even if Carter plays.

Jets running back Michael Carter left Sunday’s win over the Bears with an ankle injury, but the team isn’t ruling him out of their Week 13 trip to Minnesota at this point.

Head coach Robert Saleh said at his Monday press conference that Carter suffered a low ankle sprain. He added that the team sees him as day-to-day with a chance to play against the Vikings.

Carter has been the lead back for the Jets since Breece Hall tore his ACL, but the team’s other options had a good showing against the Bears. Rookie Knight ran for 69 yards and caught three passes for 34 yards while Johnson ran for a 32-yard touchdown. Robinson was inactive for that game, but could find his way back into the mix if Carter isn’t able to go this weekend, the story said. This could end up being a muddy situation fantasy-wise, especially if Carter plays but isn't 100 %. Hopefully we can learn more leading up to the game.

RB Michael Carter (ankle) is day-to-day. Head coach Robert Saleh said he'll have more info on Wednesday.

Ty Johnson and Zonovan Knight split the load in a blowout win over the Bears, but they may have a third back in the rotation if Carter were to miss the entire game. It's too early in the week to make a broad call on the backfield but either back could make an interesting flier if we hear bad news about Carter's ankle later this week.

Tests showed that Jets’ RB Breece Hall suffered a torn ACL and a minor meniscus injury.

A brutal blow to the Jets and a great rookie season from Breece Hall. Michael Carter would presumably move into a more workhorse role, with Ty Johnson rotating more in the passing and running game.

Jets are releasing RB Tevin Coleman, per sources.

Related players: Breece Hall, Michael Carter, Ty Johnson, La'Mical Perine

While Hall is expected to be the team's RB1, and Carter a change of pace and third down back, we had Coleman listed as the team's RB3, which is at least notable in deeper leagues. That role could go to Johnson or Perine going forward. It could be something to watch if you're fantasy-invested in the Jets running game.

Jets HC Robert Saleh told reporters Monday that RB Michael Carter is dealing with a concussion, but has a chance to play Week 18.

Related Players: Tevin Coleman, Ty Johnson

Concussions are never the same, but if you play in a Week 18 championship and need to replace/add a player for Carter, his backfield mates are not the worst options.

The New York Jets will be without RB Tevin Coleman (concussion) for Week 14's game against the New Orleans Saints. WR Elijah Moore (quad) is questionable.

Related Players: Ty Johnson, Austin Walter, Denzel Mims, Jamison Crowder, Braxton Berrios

Coleman has missed majority of 2021 for a myriad of injuries. Moore could be in line for another strong game against a passive Saints secondary so long as he can manage his quad injury.
