Jets beat writer Rich Cimini sees RB Chris Johnson's stock falling:

Let's call it like it is: After three games, Chris Ivory looks a lot better than Johnson, who was held to 34 yards on 10 carries by a suspect Chicago run defense.

Johnson, a former 2,000-yard runner, hasn't demonstrated any of the explosiveness that once made him the most feared back in the sport. It's a new system, and he's coming off knee surgery, so it's too soon to panic. But his average after three games (3.5 per carry) is 2 yards less than Ivory.

Fantasy Impact: 

The two have essentially split carries and while Ivory has looked better, he's also produced more. The Jets have some tough matchups coming up and Johnson is no longer looking like an attractive lineup option.

Jets RB Chris Johnson totals 77 yards on 11 touches vs. Giants

On Friday, the Jets’ running backs again looked good. Chris Johnson carried nine times for 42 yards. Chris Ivory carried six times for 50 yards. Bilal Powell carried twice for 6 yards. Johnson and Ivory were also involved in the passing game. Johnson had two catches for 35 yards, with a long of 19. Ivory’s only catch was a quick screen that he turned into a 23-yard gain. The Jets want to have an element in their offense that involves backs catching passes, and Friday was an encouraging development in that regard.

Fantasy Impact: 

Johnson looked good doing it on the ground and through the air against the G-Men.

Jets will be 'tempted' to ride CJ?K if he gets into a rhythm

Jets HC Rex Ryan said this week that he doesn’t think “one guy is just going to carry the load,” but it’ll be tempting to leave the former NFL rushing champion (Chris Johnson) on the sideline if he gets into a rhythm.

Fantasy Impact: 

There is a lot of hand-wringing about Johnson's workload in New York, but we believe he will get enough work to be a serviceable RB2. Considering he's the 26th RB off the board in the 5th/6th round, he offers good value at that point in the draft. He has six consecutive top 12 finishes in PPR formats and plays alongside one of the most injury-prone backs in the league (Chris Ivory).

Jets teammates say that Chris Johnson 'still has it'

Does Jets RB Chris Johnson still have "it"?

“Oh yeah, he still has it,’’ linebacker David Harris said. “We noticed it the first day when we were in Cortland. He’s still the fastest guy on the field. He’s still got a lot of juice in those legs.’’

Harris said he has not forgotten the 94-yard touchdown run Johnson had against the Jets in December 2012.
“It killed us,’’ he recalled.

Defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson was not yet a Jet in 2012, so he didn’t get the chance to see that run up close, but he knows what he’s seen out of Johnson this summer.

“Oh, he’s got his burst,’’ Richardson said. “If he gets behind the defense he’s not getting caught from behind by anybody in the league. He’s 28. It’s not like the man’s 38 and still playing running back. I have yet to see the miles on him.’’

Fantasy Impact: 

Johnson figures to be the Jets’ RB1, though Chris Ivory will serve in a change-of-pace capacity. As long as he sees the bulk of the touches in the Jets’ run-heavy offense, Johnson should post fantasy RB2 numbers. He has finished in the top 12 in each of his six seasons, so a top 24 finish (RB2-type numbers) is not a stretch, even with a new team.
