Tevin Coleman, Ty Johnson's Jets Fantasy Outlook After Michael Carter's Injury

Michael Carter had taken control of the New York Jets backfield, but an ankle injury forced him out of Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins and created more opportunities for Tevin Coleman and Ty Johnson.

Though the Jets offense entered the day averaging just 17.9 points per game, 26th in the NFL, any running back who gets touches is worth monitoring in fantasy football.

Carter also showed a running back can be a valuable fantasy asset in this offense after scoring four touchdowns in his last six games. If Carter is forced to miss more time, Coleman and Johnson could be worth starting in favorable matchups, though Johnson has more upside of the two.
