New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein has been quiet through the first two weeks of the season, having attempted just one field goal over that span. He will hope for a larger workload against the New England Patriots in Week 3's Thursday night game. Zuerlein was a solid fantasy kicker in 2023 as he missed just three of his 38 field-goal attempts but he is hard to trust in fantasy this season until the Jets start affording him more chances.
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin has struggled to make an impact through the first two weeks of the season, having caught just two passes for 16 yards thus far. Conklin will look to reverse his fortunes in Week 3's Thursday night game against the New England Patriots. The Patriots have been stingy against fantasy tight ends through two weeks as they are allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to the position. The tough matchup paired with the lack of production makes Conklin a stay-away in fantasy in Week 3.
New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard caught two touchdown passes in Week 1 but was unable to recreate the magic in Week 2, finishing with just two catches for 11 yards. He will look to bounce back against the New England Patriots in Week 3's Thursday night game. The Patriots have struggled to contain opposing wideouts through two games this season, giving Lazard a sliver of hope for a big outing. That being said, he falls into the desperation flex category heading into Week 3 because of his inconsistency in the Jets offense.
New York Jets wide receiver Mike Williams made his first catch of the season in Week 2, hauling in a 19-yard pass in a win over the Tennessee Titans. He will look to make a bigger impact against the New England Patriots in Week 3's Thursday night game. Williams, who tore his ACL early in the 2023 season, is trending in the right direction as he was in on 64.9% of the snaps in Week 2 after playing just 17.6% of the snaps in the season opener. The Patriots have been generous to opposing wide receivers through two weeks and are fresh off allowing both DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba to post 100-yard games last week. That being said, until Williams shows he is a bigger piece of the offense, he is just a desperation flex in fantasy.
New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson has yet to post a ceiling game in 2024, having caught just 10 passes for 117 yards through two games thus far. He will look to make a bigger impact in the box score against the New England Patriots in Week 3's Thursday night game. Wilson could very well break out against a Pats defense that is allowing the seventh-most fantasy points per game through the first two weeks of the season and is fresh off getting shredded by DK Metcalf (10 catches for 129 yards and a touchdown) and Jaxon Smith-Njigba (12-117-0). Wilson is a lock for starting lineups as a low-end WR1 in fantasy heading into Thursday night.
