Team news: New York Jets

Jets WR Braxton Berrios will start at slow receiver in place of the injured Jamison Crowder, according to Zach Braziller of the New York Post.

The former 7th-round pick of the Patriots get his chance to start for a depleted Jets receiving corps, but his start means little for fantasy purposes.

Jets WR Jamison Crowder has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the 49ers with a hamstring injury, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.

Crowder led the Jets in catches and reception yards Sunday and will now cede that production to Breshad Perriman and Chris Hogan. Perriman and Hogan have better-than-expected match-ups against the 49ers with CB Richard Sherman on IR. That said, the Jets passing game loses their best receiver for this week.

Jets rookie RB La'Mical Perine (ankle) logged his first limited practice Thursday, according to Zach Braziller of the New York Post. “He has big play written all over him,” Jets QB Sam Darnold said. “So, if he’s healthy, we’re looking to get him involved and seeing what he can do with the ball in his hands.”

Perine has much more upside than the veteran Frank Gore, but it would be wise to avoid high expectations and workload expectations against the 49ers this week.

According to Connor Hughes on Twitter, New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder is set to miss Thursday's practice with a hamstring injury.

Missing practice on a Thursday is an ominous sign for Crowder's potential availability this weekend. Already down Le'Veon Bell, it could spell bad news for the Jets offense if Crowder is forced to miss any game action. Tight end Chris Herndon and receivers Breshad Perriman and Chris Hogan figure to be the main beneficiaries if the Jets top target misses Week 2 against the San Francisco 49ers.
