QB Aaron Rodgers is entering his second season in New York aiming to last longer than one game. He'll have all the tools at his disposal to get the Jets back to the playoffs for the first time since 2010.
The Browns have a stout defense anchored by pass rusher Myles Garrett, but QB Deshaun Watson has barely played in two years with the team, and Nick Chubb continues to recover from a devastating knee injury.
A pair of QB trades were overshadowed by the Chargers' decision to ship WR Keenan Allen to the Bears.

Jefferson joined the Jets on the heels of a 5.5-sack 2022 campaign with Seattle. He's adept at getting to the quarterback from the interior but struggles to stop the run, so Jefferson's likely to occupy a rotational role at defensive tackle next to star DT Quinnen Williams in New York's 4-3 defense.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Needs surgery on foot
Jefferson, a pending unrestricted free agent, will need offseason surgery for a foot injury he sustained in Sunday's divisional-round loss to the Packers, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Jefferson's injury could hardly be more ill-timed, considering his current contract status. The 26-year-old defensive tackle is considered an emerging star at his position, and he finished the 2019 regular season with 26 tackles (14 solo), 3.5 sacks, three defensed passes and one fumble recovery over 14 games. Jefferson's injury is officially a fracture, so the recovery timeline may be relatively extensive and initially impact his appeal on the open market.
