Team news: New York Jets | Page 8

Tight end Erick All and running back Zack Moss have been placed on injured reserve. All will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL and Moss is expected to miss extended time with a neck injury.

With Moss out, the Bengals made a move for Herbert who should take over as the team's RB2 behind Brown and give the team some depth with Williams.

Running back Khalil Herbert is on to Cincinnati.

Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports that the Bengals have agreed to a trade with the Bears that will add Herbert to their backfield for the rest of the season. A 2025 seventh-round pick will go back to the Bears as compensation.

Moss is dealing with a neck injury and there is no timetable for his return, we reported on Monday. So the Bengals needed help at the position. Herbert should slide in as the team's RB2 behind Brown, who is the clear RB1. Meanwhile in Chicago, Johnson becomes an interesting fantasy addition as the team's clear RB2 behind Swift. Swift started slow this season, but has come on as of late, however, Johnson could see his value climb and is probably worth adding off the wire if you have the room.

Head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters after the game that Jameis Winston remains the team’s starter.

Winston finished the game 26-of-46 for 235 yards with one touchdown and three interceptions. He was also sacked six times. All three of Winston’s interceptions came in Chargers territory, the story pointed out. The Browns have DTR and Zappe waiting in the wings, but neither would bring the upside Winston brings to the offense. Unfortunately with Winston, fantasy owners will get the downside too, much like in Week 9.

Tee Higgins and Orlando Brown Jr. will be listed as doubtufl on the Bengals injury report vs. the Raiders.

Related Players: Ja'Marr Chase, Andrei Iosivas, Trenton Irwin, Jermaine Burton, Mike Gesicki

If Higgins misses more time, expect Chase's target share to skyrocket, while Iosivas would once again be an interesting deep-league Flex play option, while Gesicki returns to TE streamer range. It's worth mentioning that rookie Jermaine Burton has been seeing more of the field, with Joe Burrow commenting on his performance throughout the week.

The Jets are placing WR Allen Lazard on Injured Reserve because of a chest injury, sources say. Aaron Rodgers’ good friend and trusted target is out at least four games.

Related Players: Garrett Wilson, Davante Adams, Mike Williams, Malachi Corley

The long-awaited Mike Williams trade feels very unlikely to happen now, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's a fantasy target, either. Lazard is an easy drop anywhere he's dangling on the roster bubble, and we should see some heightened red-zone usage out of Wilson, Adams, and Tyler Conklin moving forward.

If Higgins misses more time, expect Chase's target share to skyrocket, while Iosivas would once again be an interesting deep-league Flex play option, while Gesicki returns to TE streamer range.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins is listed as questionable for Sunday with a quad injury.
Higgins was limited in practice today and his status will be monitored through the weekend.
Left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. (knee) and safety Geno Stone (shin) both went full today and do not have a game status.

If Higgins misses more time, expect Chase's target share to skyrocket, while Iosivas would once again be an interesting Flex play option.

Sources: Lions WR Jameson Williams will not appeal his two-game suspension, and will therefore be OUT for Detroit’s Week 8 and Week 9 games vs the Titans and Packers.

Related Players: Amon-Ra St. Brown, Tim Patrick, Kalif Raymond

Well, it's been fun while it's lasted, but Williams once again finds himself on the sideline for off-the-field issues. Patrick and/or Raymond profile as interesting desperation Flexes over the next two weeks.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is facing a suspension. Again.

Williams is reportedly set to be suspended for two games for violating the NFL's Performance-Enhancing Substances policy, according to ESPN's Eric Woodyward.

Williams was also suspended for six games at the start of the 2023 season for violating the league's gambling policy when he made bets on sports at the Lions' facility, but not on the NFL, but the suspension was eventually reduced when the NFL changed its policy. He missed the first four games of the season, the story went on to say. With Williams out, Raymond, Williams and Patrick all move up the depth chart, but the Lions could end up giving more targets to TE LaPorta and RB Gibbs.

Colts HC Shane Steichen says WR Michael Pittman Jr. (back) will play Sunday against the Dolphins.

Related Players: Josh Downs, Alec Pierce, Adonai Mitchell

Even though Pittman has be cleared, he should remain on benches in all but the deepest leagues. This would have been a decent spot if Tua Tagovailoa were playing on the other side, but this game could easily turn into a slog.
