Fields on Jets' passing game: 'We're fine with 8-yard completions' and tiring defenses with runs
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — The New York Jets' passing game has been short on long passes this summer. The lack of deep throws has some fans anxious, wondering if Justin Fields and the offense will be able to stretch the field against opponents this season when needed. Well, relying on the run and mixing in short passes might be an effective alternative.

Good fantasy football team names are almost as important as good teams
With fantasy football draft season upon us, For The Win has been ramping up our coverage the last few days with things like sleepers and busts, injuries to know about and players to avoid at all costs. And we have more to come. But today I'm not here to help you build a good fantasy team. Today I want to impress upon you the importance of having a good fantasy team name. A good name isn't easy to come by. Typically, you need the good enough fortune of drafting a player with a pun-able enough name to flip into something worthy of team-name status. Then, you have to be witty enough to come up with the pun. MOCK DRAFT 1.0: A fantasy RB1 surprise at the top As someone who hasn't been as thoughtful with these things in the past, my teams are simply a flip of the now-beleaguered GM of my favorite team (shoutout to Low Down Dirty Schoen. 2025 is our year). But I have to admit, some of the names I've seen since my pivot to Joe Schoen in 2022 put my team to... Schoen (sorry, couldn't resist). Seriously, I'm envious of some of these clever puns. Pin the Tail on the McConkey... I Dream of Jeanty... Mahomes Depot... come on man. Those are great. And it's even better when the pun is a flip of a player who's on the team. Which isn't always possible. Sometimes, you're just carrying over a name from a previous season. Regardless, a good name never stops being good. DON'T SLEEP: Meet Commanders RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt Now, with all that said, let's not get things twisted here. Winning is still the most important part of fantasy football. I'd take a championship as Team Grimes over a runner-up finish as I Dream of Jeanty. But you know what's better than winning? Winning with a cool name. And because only one person can win each year, most of us are going to be losers anyway. The least you can do is put on the fantasy version of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' creamsicle jerseys and lose in style. Preseason fantasy studs Week 2 of the NFL preseason wrapped with Monday night's game between the Washington Commanders and Cincinnati Bengals, which leaves just one more week of tune-up games before the real football begins. In the games we've seen, several players have stood out as potential fantasy impact players. Caleb Williams, in particular, showed some really good things, Christian D'Andrea wrote: "Williams looked like the Heisman Trophy winner he once was in a game-opening 92-yard touchdown drive capped by a 36-yard Olamide Zaccheaus catch-and-run. In fairness, backups Tyson Bagent and Austin Reed also carved up a deficient Buffalo Bills defense to the point where Bills head coach Sean McDermott seemed appalled. But after a season where Williams showcased many of the same flaws that derailed Justin Fields -- too many sacks (nearly 11 percent of his dropbacks), an eagerness to ditch designed plays under relatively minor threats of pressure, iffy processing -- this was a step forward. With a proven offensive mind at the helm and a lineup of explosive skill players, Williams could thrive in year two." Check out more of what Christian had to say about Williams and the other fantasy studs of the preseason. Quick Hits: Rich Eisen back on SC ...

Jets' 2024 Third-Round Pick in Jeopardy of Being Released
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A new era of New York Jets football seems to be on the horizon. In search of their first playoff appearance since 2010, New York's front office will make any changes necessary to help its team get there. That could mean the release of last season's third-round pick, wide receiver Malachi Corley. GREEN BAY, WISCONSIN - AUGUST 09: Malachi Corley #6 of the New York Jets looks on prior to the game against the Green Bay Packers during the NFL Preseason 2025 game at Lambeau Field on... GREEN BAY, WISCONSIN - AUGUST 09: Malachi Corley #6 of the New York Jets looks on prior to the game against the Green Bay Packers during the NFL Preseason 2025 game at Lambeau Field on August 09, 2025 in Green Bay, Wisconsin. MoreBleacher Report's Gary Davenport listed Corley as the one player that the Jets should release prior to their season opener next month. "Corley was essentially invisible for the Jets as a rookie -- three catches for 16 yards in 83 snaps and a would-be touchdown run that became a turnover when dropped the ball to celebrate before crossing the goal line," Davenport wrote. Davenport went on to discuss that Corley's recent action with the third stringers in New York's recent preseason game could be the writing on the wall for Corley's time with the Jets. "In the first preseason game, Corley was out there with third stringers. But rather than blow by a bunch of scrubs, he caught just one pass. He's playing his way right off the Gang Green roster," he wrote. Corley had a stellar career at Western Kentucky, racking up 259 catches for 3,035 yards and 29 touchdowns in four seasons. His excellent numbers helped him fly up draft boards and become a Day 2 pick in last season's draft. As a rookie OC, there are bound to be plenty of questions about how good Tanner Engsrand can be for the @nyjets. One way to answer that in a hurry? Get this guy going ASAP. Malachi Corley can play. — Glenn Naughton (@JNRadio_Glenn) June 27, 2025 Fast forward just over a year later and Corley may now have just one final week on the Jets roster before he is potentially released. The good news for him, is it will be very likely that multiple teams will be willing to take a chance on a third-round pick from just one season ago. A release from New York should certainly not be the end of Corley's NFL career. More NFL: Insider Believes Blockbuster Trade Could Be in the Works for the Patriots
