Sharp SixStartRight · +4.3 over the line

A depleted Jets front seven is good news for exactly one person on this slate, and it's the back they can't tackle anyway. Jeanty is rostered everywhere, averaging right around 18 a game over his last two, and a soft run defense only raises his floor. This isn't a buy signal, it's a reason not to overthink a lineup decision you'd already made.
