Sharp take

Sharp SixHold

A sharp rank near 240 does not become a lineup piece because a headline writer needed a verb. Johnson put up 3.7 and Mitchell put up zero last time out, and KC as 9.5-point favorites in a 46.5 total means the Jets side of this game script is garbage for a receiver on the wrong end of the spread. Stash one if your bench has a free slot and nothing better is on the wire. Neither sniffs your starting lineup this week.
