Dustin Keller isn't lobbying to have the ball thrown hi...

Jan 08, 2010

Dustin Keller isn't lobbying to have the ball thrown his way, but the tight end still wants Mark Sanchez to know where he is at all times.

"I'm always ready and I stay in his ear about it. If this happens or that happens, I'm there," said Keller, who hasn't factored into the Jets' offense lately, catching just nine passes over the final five games of the regular season.

"The ball hasn't come my way very much....I'm not discouraged by it at all," he added. "I know that at any given moment, short routes or hot routes, the ball can come my way. If it comes, great, I'm ready."

As the Jets relied on their running game down the stretch, Keller spent more time on the sideline while a lineman was inserted in his place for blocking purposes. It was an unexpected twist for the second-year player, who finished the regular season with 45 receptions for 522 yards - three catches and 13 yards shy of last season's totals.

Cowboys Beat: TE Jake Ferguson not expected to play Thursday

Nick Harris on X

1 hour ago

Long list here, but this is what I’ve gathered:

Guys I expect to play: Brandin Cooks, CeeDee Lamb, Tyler Smith, Cooper Rush

Guys I don’t expect to play: Jake Ferguson, Caelen Carson (possible IR), Zack Martin, Asim Richards

Gonna be close: Trevon Diggs, Eric Kendricks, Marshawn Kneeland

Related players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

Ferguson didn't practice Tuesday and remains in protocol, while Rush and Lamb both logged limited sessions. Cooks was also limited. Harris expects Rush, Lamb and Cooks to all play on Thanksgiving against the Giants. If Ferguson is out, Schoonmaker makes for a nice option as a replacement TE in fantasy lineups.

A high-ranking league official told me they have the impression QB Daniel Jones has zeroed on a "leading" choice. While another high-ranking league source told me their understanding is Jones "is telling teams tomorrow."

Fantasy Impact:

Jones seems headed for a backup job and the Ravens, Vikings and Bucs seem like teams that could be in the market. There is a report that says Jones has eliminated the Raiders from contention. As the report said, a decision could come Wednesday from Jones.

Saints say WR Chris Olave (concussion) in a good place

Darren Rizzi said that Chris Olave is in a good place.

Fantasy Impact:

The post went on to say Olave was at the Saints practice on Tuesday and that Olave has seen several specialists and has another appointment coming up soon. On IR, the earliest Olave could be back is Week 15, but there seems to be a ways to go before we get to that point. Other reports say Olave may not return this season.
