Running back Matt Forte of the New York Jets missed the past two weeks due to a knee and toe injury which sidelined him. The truth of the matter is that age is catching up to Forte who at 31-years-old simply doesn’t have it anymore. Yeah, he still has some gas left in the tank but it’s not anything worth starting this week in fantasy football.
Even this week, the Jets hit the road to face the Miami Dolphins in Week 7 action and it’s not worth risking a starting spot on him. With the return of running back Bilal Powell to the lineup, it will undoubtedly cut into his reps.
