Jets WR Mike Williams (knee) has been placed on the active PUP list to open training camp. It's not a surprise as he works back from last September's torn ACL. Williams can be activated from the PUP list at any time and would be eligible to play Week 1. We're still expecting him to be out there for the season opener, although HC Robert Saleh suggested in June that Williams might play limited snaps early this season.
There's no fantasy impact from this news right. now. We're still over seven weeks away from the start of the 2024 season. Barring a setback in his rehab, Williams should be available come Week 1.
He won't be trustable in fantasy lineups early in the season, but Williams could certainly be an asset by the time we get to October. He has a clear path to the No. 2 WR job in a Jets offense that should be much better with QB Aaron Rodgers.
Rodgers, by the way, owns a career 6.2% career passing TD rate -- tops among all QBs with 1,000+ career pass attempts since the 1970 merger. Williams, meanwhile, has scored on 10% of his career receptions. That combination gives Williams significant TD upside this year.
