Quarterback
Taysom Hill: Hill suffered a finger injury last Thursday, the same one that sidelined Russell Wilson for a month earlier in the year. Sean Payton said that Hill was going to try to push through the injury since he “could not make it worse” and will start on Sunday.
Hill once again showed us why his rushing ability provides a high floor. Hill only completed 46.3% of his passes and threw four interceptions last Thursday, but still posted 20.7 fantasy points as he added 101 rushing yards to his line.
The Jets are 31st in passing points allowed per attempt (0.51) and 29th in passing points allowed per game (17.2) to give Hill viability as a streaming option to go along with rushing floor.
