Jets QB Zach Wilson "on board" with red shirting for year or two

Apr 26, 2023

Jets GM Joe Douglas spoke today about Zach Wilson learning behind Aaron Rodgers, and sources say Wilson has been very receptive to the idea of a redshirt year or two. The coaches have been open with him on the plan, and good dialogue has followed on it.

So Wilson's on board.

Fantasy Impact:

This news obviously doesn't make a difference in typical redraft leagues, but for SuperFlex Dynasty leagues, it could be important. If the Jets build the offense up around Rodgers, but he ends up leaving in a year or two, it only makes sense that it could benefit Wilson down the road. Of course, Wilson's ineptitude is what forced their hand in the first place, but we've seen weirder things than a quarterback learning under a Hall of Fame veteran.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift misses Wednesday practice

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
