Jason Brownlee - Catches TD in preseason opener Brownlee caught one two targets for a 12-yard touchdown in Saturday's 20-17 preseason win over the Commanders.

Impact Brownlee couldn't come down with a contested deep ball from Tyrod Taylor in the first quarter but caught a fade in the end zone from Andrew Peasley for a 12-yard touchdown in the second. Brownlee appeared in seven games for the Jets in 2023 after signing with the team as an undrafted free agent, but he finds himself on the roster bubble heading into 2024 after the team bolstered its receiving corps in the offseason. This was a promising start in Brownlee's quest to make the team, and he'll look to build off this performance next Saturday against the Panthers.

Tyrod Taylor - Quiet in preseason start Taylor completed one of two passes for minus-1 yard in Saturday's 20-17 preseason win over the Commanders.

Impact Taylor played the first two drives with the Jets holding out most of their starters, including Aaron Rodgers. The veteran backup didn't do much of note in his Jets debut, but Taylor isn't in any danger of losing the backup role to Jordan Travis (ankle) or Andrew Peasley, who threw a touchdown pass on the next drive after Taylor exited the game. Taylor will likely see more extensive action in next Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers.

Malachi Corley - Four catches in NFL debut Corley caught four of five targets for 27 yards in Saturday's 20-17 preseason win over the Commanders. He also had a 33-yard kickoff return and one punt return for no gain.

Impact Corley caught the only completion quarterback Tyrod Taylor had in his two drives to start the game, and the 2024 third-round pick stayed in for the remainder of the first half after Andrew Peasley checked in under center. The rookie wide receiver's route running needs refinement, but Corley's a handful to bring down with the ball in his hands, so the Jets tried to give him opportunities in space Saturday on both offense and special teams. Corley may not get a chance to work with starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers in a game situation during the preseason, as Taylor will most likely start again in next Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers.

Isaiah Davis - Four catches in preseason opener Davis rushed four times for eight yards and caught all four of his targets for 33 yards in Saturday's 20-17 preseason win over the Commanders. He added a 29-yard kickoff return and...

Impact Davis was the second running back to enter the game for the Jets after fellow rookie Braelon Allen got the start with Breece Hall resting on the sideline. While Davis didn't do much on the ground, he flashed some decent pass catching skills and showcased his versatility by contributing on special teams. It's also significant that the 2024 fifth-round draft pick checked into the game before 2023 fifth-round pick Israel Abanikanda, who entered in the third quarter and scored a two-yard touchdown in the fourth. Holding off Abanikanda for the third spot on the depth chart is Davis' easiest path to securing a roster spot, and how they perform in next Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers could help determine the outcome of that competition.

Braelon Allen - Runs well in preseason debut Allen rushed six times for 54 yards and wasn't targeted in Saturday's 20-17 preseason win over Washington.

Impact Allen is the favorite to operate as Breece Hall's top backup in the regular season, and the rookie fourth-round pick got the start Saturday with Hall getting the day off. After a quiet first quarter, Allen came alive in the second quarter with bursts of 16 and 24 yards on the ground. The 6-foot-1, 235-pound running back out of Wisconsin will look to build on this encouraging debut when the Jets continue preseason play next Saturday against the Panthers.

Jimmy Ciarlo - Will not return Ciarlo will not return to Saturday's preseason matchup with the Commanders due to a knee injury, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact There is no word on the severity of Ciarlo's injury at this point in time. When healthy, the rookie is competing for a depth role at outside linebacker for the Jets.

AUGUST 10 • ROTOWIRE

Breece Hall - Not in line to play Saturday Hall is among the Jets' key skill players not slated to see action against the Commanders in Saturday's preseason opener, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The same applies to QB Aaron Rodgers, WRs Garrett Wilson, Mike Williams, Xavier Gipson and Allen Lazard, as well as TEs Tyler Conklin and Jeremy Ruckert. In Hall's absence, Braelon Allen, Isaiah Davis, Israel Abanikanda, Deon Jackson and Xazavian Valladay are available to handle backfield duties against Washington.

AUGUST 10 • ROTOWIRE

Garrett Wilson - Likely not suiting up Wilson is not expected to play in the team's preseason opener against the Commanders on Saturday.

Impact The Jets are expected to hold out almost the entirety of their projected starters, so that the star wide receiver likely won't play is hardly a surprise. Wilson's preseason ADP reflects optimism regarding New York's offense especially now that multi-time MVP Aaron Rodgers is back healthy from a Week 1 torn Achilles.

Mike Williams - A week or two away from team drills Williams (knee) was limited to individual work at Tuesday's practice and won't take part in team drills for another week or two, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Coach Robert Saleh said Thursday that Williams, who came off the active/PUP list Wednesday, is "a lot further ahead than we anticipated," per Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record, but he declined to state whether the veteran wideout will have his snap count limited to start the season. That seems positive for Williams' chances of being available Week 1 versus the 49ers, though as he works his way back from a torn left ACL suffered Week 3 last season, it remains likely that the big-bodied contested catch specialist will need time to ramp up his effectiveness. Once at 100 percent form, Williams figures to operate as the Jets' clear No. 2 wide receiver behind Garrett Wilson, with Xavier Gipson, Allen Lazard and Malachi Corley options to factor into three-wide sets.

Deon Jackson - Inks deal Jackson signed a contract with the Jets on Wednesday.

Impact Jackson bounced between the Colts, Browns and Giants last season, seeing action in four regular-season games. The Duke product only managed to net 16 yards on 14 carries, but he did have a little bit better success in 2022, where he averaged 3.5 YPC on 68 attempts. The 25-year-old will compete with rookies Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis, as well as second-year man Israel Abanikanda for a spot behind Breece Hall at running back.

Mike Williams - Comes off PUP list The Jets removed Williams (knee) from the active/PUP list Wednesday.

Impact Williams' activation from the PUP list sets him up to practice for the first time in training camp, a notable step in his recovery from a left ACL tear suffered Week 3 last season. The timing of Williams' activation perfectly aligns with the timetable provided by coach Robert Saleh earlier this offseason, indicating that his recovery is continuing on schedule. The 29-year-old is in position to operate as one of Aaron Rodgers' top targets this season, behind No. 1 wideout Garrett Wilson, with running back Breece Hall and tight end Tyler Conklin also in the mix as pass-catchers. If he can quickly get back on the field without losing a step, Williams' upside in this Jets offense could entail a 1,000-yard receiving campaign and notable usage in the red zone. There's real risk, on the other hand, that Williams could get off to a slow start to the season even if he is cleared for action Week 1 against the 49ers.
