Ryan says Sanchez is the QB

Oct 19, 2009

Rex Ryan is sticking with Mark Sanchez as his starting quarterback despite the struggling rookie's five-interception performance in the New York Jets' loss to the Buffalo Bills.

Sanchez, the fifth overall pick out of Southern California, has mostly struggled since beating out Kellen Clemens for the job in the preseason. He's tied with Carolina's Jake Delhomme for the league lead in interceptions with 10, and his 56.7 quarterback rating is higher than only Oakland's Jamarcus Russell and Cleveland's Derek Anderson.

Ryan said Monday he still believes in Sanchez, but needs to evaluate what can be done to help the rookie develop.

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
