Jets shut down WR Garrett Wilson for rest of 2025 season

Adam Schefter

Dec 19, 2025 · 11:56 AM EST

Jets HC Aaron Glenn told reporters that WR Garrett Wilson, who has bad a knee injury, will not play again this season.

Related Players: Adonai Mitchell, John Metchie, Isaiah Williams

Fantasy Impact:

We look toward 2026 for basically the entire Jets offense. Mitchell can be considered a low-end WR3 for the remainder of the fantasy playoffs.

Jets going with Tyrod Taylor at QB

The Jets are making a quarterback change, benching Justin Fields in favor of veteran Tyrod Taylor, per source.

Fantasy Impact:

New York faces Baltimore in Week 12 and ranks last in the league in passing yards per game, after Fields again struggled in Week 11. The Jets have seemed tempted to make this change since before their bye week, and finally pull the trigger. Taylor should at least give some passing consistency to the offense vs. Fields, but he won't have his top target in Wilson to work with. Fantasy owners should at least keep an eye on guys like Metchie, Williams and Mitchell, who are all younger WRs who could emerge with fantasy value with Taylor under center. Rookie TE Mason Taylor could also see more quality targets.

Eagles acquire WR John Metchie from Texans, who acquire TE Harrison Bryant

The Eagles acquired WR John Metchie from the Texans in exchange for TE Harrison Bryant. The teams are also swapping day three picks in 2026.

Fantasy Impact:

The Texans were looking for a tight end after Brevin Jordan suffered a season-ending knee injury last week and Metchie was starting to become buried on the depth chart in Houston. For the Eagles, Metchie will compete with the likes of Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson and Ainias Smith for roles behind the top two of A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.

Texans WR Stefon Diggs (ACL) out for season

Pro Football talk

Oct 29, 2024 · 1:55 PM EDT

Wide receiver Stefon Diggs’s first season with the Texans is reportedly over.

Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans announced on Tuesday that Diggs has been diagnosed with a torn ACL. Diggs left Sunday’s win over the Colts with a knee injury and went for further tests over the last couple of days.

Fantasy Impact:

Diggs had been ruled out of Thursday's game with the Jets but the hope was he'd be able to come back after that. As for the Texans offense, the injury comes at a time when Collins is on injured reserve with a hamstring injury, so a once-deep Texans receiving corps has been thinned out considerably, the story pointed out. Dell, Metchie, Hutchinson, Woods and Sims are the remaining receivers on the 53-man roster until Collins can make his return. Schultz, the TE, should be move involved at least in the short term. The hope is Collins is back in Week 10 as reports say he's been trending in the right direction.
