New York Jets DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard has been a pleasant surprise in 2024, catching 20 balls for 240 yards and four touchdowns over five games. He will look to keep it going against the Buffalo Bills in Week 6's Monday night game. The Bills may cool him off, however, as their secondary is allowing the seventh-fewest fantasy points per game to receivers this season. This downgrades the entire New York passing attack for Week 6, leaving Lazard as a boom/bust flex option heading into Monday night.

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen has been quiet over the past two games, rushing for 47 scoreless yards while catching just two passes. It isn't just Allen as Breece Hall has also struggled to find room to run over that same span. The Jets and Allen will look to change that in Week 6's Monday night game against the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo can be beaten on the ground as they are allowing the 15th-most fantasy points per game to running backs this season. That is in stark contrast to their lockdown pass defense, which is allows the seventh-fewest fantasy points per game to receivers. The Jets could lean heavily on their running backs in Week 6, giving Allen a good shot at seeing double-digit touches for the first time since Week 3. That places him on the map as a solid flex option heading into Monday night.

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson turned in his best game of the season against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 5, catching 13 of his 23 targets for 101 yards and a touchdown. He will look for another big performance in Week 6's Monday night game against the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo's secondary should provide more resistance for Wilson than Minnesota's as they have been tough against wide receivers, allowing the 26th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Tough matchup aside, Wilson reinforced last week that he is still the top target in New York despite Aaron Rodgers' strong rapport with Allen Lazard. Fantasy gamers should temper expectations for the entire Jets passing game in Week 6 but Wilson can still be started as a mid-range WR2.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall has struggled greatly over the past two weeks, rushing for just 27 yards on 19 carries over that span. He will look to turn things around against the Buffalo Bills in Week 6's Monday night game. The Bills have been average against running backs this season, allowing the 15th-most fantasy points per game to the position through five games. Buffalo is also very tough against the pass, which could lead to a more run-heavy game plan for the Jets heading into Monday night. Hall hasn't been great for fantasy of late but he's still an explosive player who does plenty of damage in the passing game. That keeps him in the conversation as a low-end RB1 in fantasy in Week 6.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (finger) had minor finger surgery and is expected to miss at least one game and likely a few more as he works to potentially return in late October, according to a league source. Reynolds will not suit up this Sunday as the team takes on the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers in Denver. The 29-year-old was already heading towards being inactive this weekend after not practicing at all this week. With just three receptions on six targets for 45 yards and a touchdown in the last three games, Reynolds wasn't really on the fantasy radar in most leagues to begin with heading into the divisional showdown versus the Bolts. With Reynolds sidelined now, look for Lil'Jordan Humphrey, Marvin Mims Jr. and rookie Troy Franklin to have more chances for targets behind WR1 Courtland Sutton. We wouldn't recommend any of Humphrey, Mims or Franklin as streaming options against a tough LA defense.
