Omar Cooper Jr. Brings Breakout Momentum Into Week 7
New York Jets wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. enters Sunday's home matchup against the Miami Dolphins as a WR3/flex with real upside after his 48-yard score in Week 6. The rookie earned seven targets in his first game back from a four-game absence, catching six for 103 yards and a touchdown against the New England Patriots. Adonai Mitchell is returning from a finger injury, adding competition alongside Garrett Wilson. Cooper and Mitchell have appeared in the same game only in the season opener, when Cooper caught one pass for 30 yards, so his Week 6 workload came with a receiving group that will change again Sunday.

Garrett Wilson Retains WR2 Appeal as Jets Get Healthier
New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson remains a strong WR2 in PPR leagues for Sunday's home matchup against the Miami Dolphins. He has caught 35 of 48 targets for 418 yards and three touchdowns through six games, and his four catches for 44 yards against the New England Patriots in Week 6 were a blip after 100-yard performances against the Detroit Lions and Cleveland Browns over the past four weeks. Both of Wilson's 100-yard games included a touchdown, accounting for two of the Jets' seven passing scores. Target competition is the risk, with Adonai Mitchell's return and Omar Cooper Jr.'s 103-yard outing giving Geno Smith more options.

Braelon Allen's Week 7 Starting Value Hinges on Backfield Availability
New York Jets running back Braelon Allen is a strong RB2 for Sunday's home game against the Miami Dolphins if Breece Hall (quad) misses another week, and his past two starts show why. Allen turned them into 220 scrimmage yards, including 194 rushing yards on 41 carries and 12 forced missed tackles, with 78 rushing yards on 17 attempts and another 26 yards on two receptions against the New England Patriots in Week 6. Hall is questionable after returning to limited practices, and Aaron Glenn has continued to call him the starter. If Hall plays, Allen becomes a riskier flex option because the Jets have not established how they will divide the work.

Breece Hall Questionable as Backfield Split Looms in Week 7
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quad) is questionable for Sunday's home matchup against the Miami Dolphins after limited practices Thursday and Friday, and he is only an RB2/flex if active. Head coach Aaron Glenn still identifies Hall as the starter, but his comments about sharing the workload carry more weight after Braelon Allen rushed for 194 yards on 41 carries over the past two games. Hall has missed three games since getting injured against the Detroit Lions in Week 3, and his workload is less certain than before the injury. Glenn said the Jets would evaluate his availability through Sunday.

Geno Smith Offers Week 7 Streaming Appeal Against Miami
New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith is a QB2 and streaming consideration in deeper one-quarterback leagues because the Miami Dolphins, visiting Sunday, have converted an NFL-low 8.2% of their pressures into sacks, while Smith has faced pressure on 42.7% of his dropbacks. He completed 20 of 30 passes for 252 yards, a touchdown, and an interception against the New England Patriots in Week 6, bringing his season totals to 1,336 passing yards, seven touchdowns, and one interception with a 68.9% completion rate. Adonai Mitchell's return gives him another receiving option alongside Garrett Wilson and Omar Cooper Jr. He has thrown multiple touchdown passes only once this season and has contributed just 42 rushing yards.

Garrett Wilson is an Inconsistent Option Lately
New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson hasn't been a great fantasy option over the last few weeks. Wilson has put together some strong performances, but he has mixed in some duds as well. In Week 4, Wilson finished with three receptions for 27 yards. He followed that up with seven catches for 107 yards and a touchdown in Week 5. This past weekend, Wilson went back to producing duds with four catches for 44 yards in the loss to the New England Patriots. Fantasy managers can't be exactly sure what they're going to get from Wilson right now. Despite some struggles, Wilson is still someone who is viewed as a top option against the Miami Dolphins this weekend.

Adonai Mitchell Set to Return Against Dolphins in Week 7
New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell (finger) will play Sunday against the Miami Dolphins after missing four consecutive games, according to head coach Aaron Glenn, as reported by Rich Cimini of ESPN. Mitchell is expected to practice in full Friday after being limited Wednesday and Thursday, completing his recovery from a finger injury that required a procedure on his hand. He caught nine passes for 123 yards on 15 targets across New York's first two games before getting hurt. Rookie Omar Cooper Jr. returned from his own injury last week and caught six passes for 103 yards and a touchdown against New England. With Garrett Wilson also commanding targets, Mitchell faces a more crowded receiving group than he did earlier this season and is best viewed as a deep-league bench option for his first game back.

Breece Hall Questionable for Week 7 Against Dolphins
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quadriceps) will be limited in Friday's practice and listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the Miami Dolphins, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Hall missed Wednesday's practice before returning in a limited capacity Thursday, his first participation since suffering the injury in Week 3. He has missed three consecutive games, with Braelon Allen handling the starting workload in his absence. Allen rushed for 116 yards and a touchdown against Cleveland in Week 5 before producing 104 scrimmage yards against New England last Sunday. Hall's three-game absence and Allen's recent production make his potential Week 7 workload difficult to project, leaving him a risky fantasy starter even if cleared to play.

Adonai Mitchell Remains Limited in Practice on Thursday
New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell (finger) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Mitchell has not played for New York since Week 2 due to a finger injury, but it appears he could have a chance to return in Week 7 against the Miami Dolphins. Across two games before getting injured, the 24-year-old recorded nine catches for 123 yards on 15 targets. Once healthy, Mitchell profiles as the Jets' WR2 alongside star wideout Garrett Wilson. However, Jets rookie wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. had a breakout game in Week 6, which could take some targets away from Mitchell upon his return. Mitchell is not guaranteed to provide fantasy managers with consistent production, but his big-play ability makes him a potential boom/bust flex option in deep leagues if he's active in Week 7 against the Dolphins.

Breece Hall Upgraded to Limited Practice Participation on Thursday
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quad) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday. Hall has missed the Jets' last three games with a quad injury, but it appears he is making progress and could have a chance to play in Week 7 against the Miami Dolphins. Across three games before getting injured, Hall logged 265 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 61 touches. Jets RB2 Braelon Allen has played very well in Hall's absence, recording 287 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 60 touches over the last three weeks. As a result, Hall may split touches with Allen to some degree upon his return. Still, Hall profiles as the lead back in New York when healthy, and he would have a favorable matchup against Miami if he's active on Sunday.

Breece Hall Moving Well at Practice, Could Play in Week 7
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quadriceps) was back on the practice field on Thursday and moving well, according to beat reporter Brian Costello. Hall has missed the past three games after injuring his quad in the fourth quarter of a Week 3 loss to the Lions, and in his absence, third-year back Braelon Allen has averaged over 95 total yards per game on a 4.6-yard-per-carry average. Hall's return could make for a muddled backfield as he faces the potential of a limited snap count as he eases back to a full workload, lowering the fantasy ceilings of both backs for at least a week. In a Week 7 divisional matchup with a Dolphins team that has been among the league's most favorable matchups for fantasy running backs, both Hall and Allen can still provide value from the flex but come with the risk of eating into one another's work and should be started with tempered expectations.

Braelon Allen to Continue to See Touches
New York Jets running back Braelon Allen has served as the team's starting running back for each of the last three weeks with Breece Hall (quadriceps) out with an injury. Head coach Aaron Glenn said on Wednesday that Allen "is going to get touches, too," when Hall returns to action, according to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic. Hall is the Jets' clear starter when he is healthy -- he had his first 1,000-yard season in 2025 -- but the 22-year-old Allen has earned a bigger workload, even when Hall is back. The former fourth-rounder in 2024 from Wisconsin has 74 carries on the year for 314 yards and two touchdowns while adding nine catches for 45 yards on 13 targets in six games. In his three starts, Allen has stepped up for New York's offense, carrying the ball 55 times for 253 yards (4.6 yards per carry) and one touchdown, adding five catches for 34 yards. Hall is not practicing on Wednesday, so Allen could be set up for a fourth straight start this Sunday against the division-rival Miami Dolphins, who have yet to win a game this year.

Adonai Mitchell to be Limited in Wednesday's Practice
New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell (finger) will practice on a limited basis on Wednesday, according to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic. Mitchell missed a fourth straight game in the Week 6 loss to the division-rival New England Patriots due to a finger/hand injury that required a small procedure. The 24-year-old had a clear path to the team's WR2 role behind Garrett Wilson early in the year before he suffered his finger/hand injury. New York's WR picture has changed a bit since then, as rookie first-rounder Omar Cooper Jr. returned from the IR last weekend to go over 100 yards receiving with a touchdown. It is good to see Mitchell returning to practice, but it does not guarantee that he will be active this Sunday at home against the division-rival Miami Dolphins. When the former second-rounder from Texas rejoins the game-day roster, he will definitely face more competition for targets from Wilson and Cooper. In the first two games of the 2026 season, Mitchell caught nine of his 15 targets for 123 yards without a score. He is becoming hard to roster in 12-team formats after Cooper's triumphant return.

Breece Hall Won't Practice on Wednesday
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quadriceps) will not practice on Wednesday, according to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic. It is not a good start to the week for Hall, who has missed the team's last three games due to a quad injury. The 25-year-old still has two days left to return to the practice field, but right now, he is firmly up in the air to play this Sunday at home against the division-rival Miami Dolphins. Braelon Allen has taken over as the Jets' primary running back with Hall sidelined, and he could once again be a strong RB2 play in Week 7 against the winless Dolphins if Hall is forced to miss a fourth straight contest. The former second-rounder in 2022 from Iowa State has been a big disappointment so far in 2026 for fantasy managers after he had his first 1,000-yard rushing season in 2025 in his fourth year in the Big Apple. Through three games so far this year, Hall has rushed for 163 yards and one touchdown on 51 carries (3.2 yards per attempt) while catching all 10 of his targets for 102 yards through the air. Check back later this week for an update on Hall's Week 7 availability.

Geno Smith has Put Himself on the QB2 Streaming Radar
New York Jets veteran quarterback Geno Smith is playing much better than he did last year with the Las Vegas Raiders. In his first six games with the Jets, the two-time Pro Bowler has completed 68.9% of his 177 pass attempts for 1,336 yards, seven touchdowns, and only one interception. The lack of interceptions is particularly noteworthy after Smith tossed a league-high 17 picks in 15 starts for the Raiders in his lone year in Sin City. The 36-year-old went 20-for-30 for 252 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in Sunday's 26-19 Week 6 loss to the division-rival New England Patriots. Smith did not have eye-popping numbers, but he was impressive nevertheless and brought the Jets back in the second half to make things interesting. It has helped his cause that rookie first-round receiver Omar Cooper Jr. is back from Injured Reserve. Cooper caught six passes for 103 yards and a touchdown against the Pats in his first game back. Going into a Week 7 divisional contest against the winless Miami Dolphins, Smith is an attractive QB2 streamer in superflex leagues. He is the QB19 in overall fantasy points early in the season.
