Jets QB Bryce Petty (shoulder) to IR

Dec 26, 2016

As expected, Bryce Petty’s audition as the Jets quarterback ended after Saturday’s 41-3 loss to the Patriots at Gillette Stadium.

The Jets revealed Monday Petty suffered a torn labrum in his left shoulder during the game when he tried to make a tackle after a fumble by Jets running back Khiry Robinson.

The team announced it had placed the second-year quarterback on injured reserve and added linebacker Corey Lemonier to the roster in his place.

Fantasy Impact:

Unfortunately for Petty, it doesn’t appear he answered any questions definitively about whether he should be the starter in 2017. As for Sunday’s game against the Bills, Ryan Fitzpatrick is expected to start with rookie second-round draft pick Christian Hackenberg likely to be dressed as the backup for the first time in his career.

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.

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.
