Jets' Justin Fields: May miss Week 14
Coach Aaron Glenn said Friday that Justin Fields is dealing with a sore knee, and "there's a chance" he'll be inactive Sunday against the Dolphins, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.Fields has served as the New York Jets' backup quarterback to Tyrod Taylor the last two games, but a knee injury that resulted in a limited practice Thursday now is threatening his availability for Week 14. If Fields ends up sitting out this weekend, practice-squad member Brady Cook will serve as the No. 2 behind Taylor.

Jets' Justin Fields: Limited with knee
Justin Fields (knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.Fields appeared on Thursday's injury report with a knee injury he may have sustained in Wednesday's practice. Now serving as the No. 2 quarterback behind Tyrod Taylor, an absence on Fields' part for Sunday's game against the Dolphins would mean rookie undrafted free agent Brady Cook would serve as Taylor's backup.

Jets' Justin Fields: Will back up Taylor on Sunday
Coach Aaron Glenn confirmed Wednesday that Justin Fields will be the New York Jets' No. 2 QB on Sunday against the Ravens, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.Brady Cook is on the Jets' practice squad, but at this stage Glenn notes that the 24-year-old signal caller is still developing, per Eric Allen of the team's official site. As a result, Fields -- who went 2-7 over his nine starts for the 2-8 Jets -- will back up Tyrod Taylor, who has officially been named the starter versus Baltimore this weekend.

Jets' Justin Fields: Expected to be benched Week 12
The New York Jets are expected to bench Justin Fields in favor of veteran backup Tyrod Taylor for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports.Fields improved as a passer slightly during New York's loss to the Patriots on Thursday Night Football in Week 11, completing 15 of 26 passes for 116 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions, but as has been the norm he did much of his damage on the ground with 11 carries for 67 yards and another TD. Despite the context of Fields working without top wideout Garrett Wilson (knee, IR), his struggles through the air now appear to have officially cost him his tenure as the Jets' starter. Expect head coach Aaron Glenn to confirm the QB change prior to New York next taking the practice field, which will occur Wednesday, at the latest. It remains to be seen whether Fields will work as the No. 2 option behind Taylor.

Jets' Justin Fields: Two total TDs in loss
Justin Fields completed 15 of 26 passes for 116 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions while adding 11 carries for 67 yards and another score in the New York Jets' 27-14 loss to the Patriots on Thursday night. He also lost a fumble.Fields was a bit better as a passer than during an abysmal 54-yard showing against the Browns on Sunday, but he still couldn't come truly close to helping his team keep pace with the highly efficient Drake Maye for four quarters. Fields did start off hot, leading a 14-play, 72-yard drive on the opening possession that he capped off with a five-yard touchdown run. The veteran quarterback would go on to add a 22-yard scoring strike to John Metchie late in the third quarter, but the Jets also would punt five times and turn the ball over on downs once. Additionally, Fields' fumble at his own 11-yard line just before the halfway point of the fourth quarter led to the final points of the game, a Patriots field goal that extended what had been a 10-point lead. He's now thrown for Thursday's yardage total or less in four of the last five games, certainly leaving open the possibility Tyrod Taylor gets a shot at a spot start in a Week 12 road matchup against one of his old teams, the Ravens, on Sunday, Nov. 23.

Jets' Justin Fields: Could be playing for job Thursday
Rich Cimini of ESPN.com suggests that Justin Fields could be playing for his job Thursday night against the Patriots.As Cimini notes, coach Aaron Glenn hasn't confirmed Fields as the New York Jets' Week 11 starter, but assuming that's the case, he'll be working without star WR Garrett Wilson (knee), who has been placed on IR. Fields has been held under 100 passing yards in three of his past four outings, a context that makes him a risky fantasy option versus New England, in any case. Per Cimini, Tyrod Taylor, who is past a recent knee injury, is lurking as a possible replacement in the event that Fields struggles Thursday.

Jets' Justin Fields: Coach quiet on starting QB again
New York Jets coach Aaron Glenn declined Monday to name Justin Fields or Tyrod Taylor as the team's starting quarterback for Thursday's divisional matchup on the road against New England, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.Glenn waited until the last moment to name Fields the starter for Sunday's 27-20 win over the Browns despite having had a Week 9 bye to prepare, and per Al Iannazzone of Newsday, the head coach said he wouldn't "waste [his] time" answering questions about the quarterback situation entering Thursday's divisional contest. Fantasy managers in need of a Week 11 starter may need to roster both Fields and Taylor -- or, better yet, avoid the situation entirely -- until an official decision is announced. Fields struggled again despite eking out a win versus Cleveland, completing just six of 11 passes for 54 yards, one touchdown and one interception, with most of his passing yards coming on a 42-yard touchdown to Breece Hall on a screen pass. Part of Fields' issues can be attributed to Garrett Wilson (knee) having been forced out before securing a single catch, but with the No. 1 wideout now seemingly trending in the wrong direction for Week 11, it will be difficult to trust any part of New York's passing game regardless of who lines up under center.

Jets' Justin Fields: Completes six passes in Week 10 win
Justin Fields completed six of 11 passes for 54 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Browns. He added seven rushing attempts for 28 yards.Fields threw for five yards and an interception in the first half, but the game was tied 17-17 at halftime thanks to two special-teams touchdowns by the New York Jets. He was credited for 42 passing yards when Breece Hall turned a fourth-quarter screen pass into a 42-yard touchdown, but Fields generated only 12 passing yards the rest of the game. The Jets seem unlikely to demote Fields after winning consecutive games, but head coach Aaron Glenn hasn't committed to a definitive starter between Fields and Tyrod Taylor under center, and Fields didn't inspire much confidence ahead of Thursday's game against the Patriots.

Jets' Justin Fields: Remaining starter for Week 10
The New York Jets plan to have Justin Fields start at quarterback in Sunday's game against the Browns, Matt Zenitz of CBSSports.com reports.Coming out of a Week 9 bye, head coach Aaron Glenn didn't commit to Fields nor Tyrod Taylor as the team's starter during Week 10 prep, but the Jets will reportedly stick with Fields under center while Taylor handles a backup role. While Taylor was inactive in Week 8 due to a knee injury, Fields retained the starting job and led the Jets to their first win of the season. He completed 21 of 32 passes for 244 yards and one touchdown while turning 11 carries into 31 yards in a 39-38 come-from-behind win over the Bengals.
