Ty Johnson Fantasy

New York Jets running back Ty Johnson surprisingly put together a decent game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 17. He rushed five times for 35 yards and one touchdown in the loss. He also added three receptions for 47 yards through the air. Those 47 receiving yards were the second-most on the team during this contest. Sadly, the Jets have buried Johnson on the depth chart, which makes him a tough fantasy option to trust. Although, he could see a bigger workload with Michael Carter (concussion) and Tevin Coleman (protocols) both possibly out next week. Johnson might be a low-end flex option in PPR formats if both players are out against the Buffalo Bills in Week 18.

New York Jets running back Ty Johnson could be looking at an extended role against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 17. Veteran back Tevin Coleman is currently sidelined due to COVID-19 protocols. That means, rookie back Michael Carter will be doing most of the work on the ground this week. Johnson hasn't made an impact since Week 14, but could get some touches here. Although, it's unlikely to be enough to warrant starting Johnson is any fantasy formats. The Jets are more than likely just going to lean on Carter for their rushing attack.

New York Jets running back Ty Johnson was a healthy scratch last week. Although, he saw six rushing attempts in two of the three contests before Week 15. However, the return of Michael Carter and the presence of Tevin Coleman likely ended Johnson's value. It's uncertain if he'll suit up for the Week 16 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Coleman has proven his worth and Carter is the future in the backfield. At best, Johnson will have a minimal role, but won't be worth starting in any formats.
