Jets RB Michael Carter (ankle) to miss a few weeks

Nov 22, 2021

Jets running back Michael Carter is expected to miss a couple of weeks with a low-grade high ankle sprain, head coach Robert Saleh said Monday afternoon. Carter went down with the injury early in the third quarter of Sunday’s 24-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins.

Fantasy Impact:

Carter had 63 yards on nine carries before getting hurt. With Zach Wilson set to return sooner than later, and Elijah Moore emerging at WR, the Jets will have to wait a couple of weeks to have all three of their rookie centerpieces on offense be on the field together. Coleman and Johnson will likely take over most of the RB duties with Carter out of the lineup.

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

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.

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.
