Jets head coach Robert Saleh told reporters that WR Corey Davis (MCL) is out this week but will be back after the bye.

Davis has spent most of his time lined up wide, which has cleared the way for former second-round pick Denzel Mims to see the field for the first time this season. It doesn't warrant fantasy consideration in redraft leagues, but maybe stash Mims in deep dynasty leagues if he's found his way into the free-agent pool. Garrett Wilson is the only player we want to start out of this group in Week 9 against a tough Buffalo matchup.

Jets’ head coach Robert Saleh said WR Corey Davis will miss Sunday's game, and WR Elijah Moore will play.

Corey Davis had cut out a decent niche inside the Jets' offense and was operating as a fantasy WR3 before being limited in Week 7's game against the Broncos. His departure in that game led to season-high snaps out wide for both Garrett Wilson and Jeff Smith. While the return of Elijah Moore could push Smith back into more of a rotational role, Wilson's usage should be secure as he continues to gel with quarterback Zach Wilson. Garrett and Moore should be considered Flex options heading into their Week 8 game against the Patriots.

Jets WR Elijah Moore, frustrated with his role and usage, has asked for a trade. The team has no plans at all to trade him.

The news comes as a shock until you look at Moore's usage since the return of Zach Wilson, including back-to-back season-lows in routes run and six combined targets in three games. Moore was almost fantasy relevant through three weeks, coming in as the overall WR64 before Wilson's return. Since then, he has scored 8.6 half-PPR points, clocking in as the WR86.

The Jets made an effort to get Garrett Wilson the ball right away after he barely played early in Week 1 against the Ravens.

Wilson drew comparisons to Justin Jefferson in the story, which is obviously high praise. But the author said Wilson was that good against the Browns. Wilson finished with eight catches (on a game-high 14 targets) for 102 yards and two touchdowns. Through two weeks, when Wilson is on the field, Joe Flacco has a 102.5 passer rating, per TruMedia. It’s 63.8 when Wilson is off the field, the story said.

The article mentions there was a sense of urgency to Saleh's voice when discussing rookies Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson. "We're young at the skill spots, we're young at critical positions, and we have to grow up quick."

Hall had a fumble and a dropped pass across his 16 opportunities (six carries, ten targets) and ceded a majority of work to sophomore Michael Carter, 38 snaps to 50 snaps. The rookie has the entire season to look forward to so there's no reason to panic from a fantasy perspective, but the backfield is sure to be led by Carter in the short term.

Denzel Mims played with Matt Rhule at Baylor, including a pair of 1,000-yard seasons.

This comes on the tail of Mims requesting a trade yesterday, finding him buried on the Jets depth chart. The former second-round pick could use a change of scenery after accruing 68 targets over his first two seasons in New York. It will be interesting if we see a sort of career revival with his former college coach.

Denzel Mims has requested a trade from the Jets, per his agent.

We have Mims buried on the depth chart behind Moore, Wilson, Davis and Berrios. Mims has likely just fallen out of favor with a coaching staff that didn't draft him and his ceiling with the Jets seems to be a WR3 if he can pass Davis and Berrios. He'll likely have some interested teams but his landing spot will go a long way in determining his new fantasy value.
