Jets Will Receive Much-Needed Boosts on Offense in Week 4<\/h1>\n

In Week 4, the New York Jets<\/a> match up against division rival the Miami Dolphins<\/a> in Monday Night Football. Last week, the Jets suffered a tough loss against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/a>. Part of what led to that loss was that the Jets were not at full strength health-wise going into the game. Players that were inactive included quarterback Justin Fields, wide receiver Josh Reynolds, edge rusher Jermaine Johnson, safety Tony Adams, and kick returner\/running back Kene Nwangwu. Early practice indications from this week show the offense may receive some major boosts this week.<\/p>\n

Justin Fields is Very Close to Returning<\/h3>\n

Jets starting quarterback Justin Fields suffered a concussion<\/a> in a losing effort against the Buffalo Bills in Week 2. This led to him not playing in Week 3, resulting in Tyrod Taylor getting the nod at quarterback. Taylor put up a middling stat line of 26 completions on 36 passing attempts for 197 yards, 2 touchdowns, and 1 interception (which was returned for a touchdown). 117 of those passing yards came in the fourth quarter. Week 4 will be a return to the norm for the Jets as Justin Fields logged full practices on Thursday and Friday. On Saturday, he officially cleared concussion protocol<\/a>, per Aaron Glenn. Although he was very disappointing in Week 2, Week 1 was very promising for Fields. He posted 16 completions on 22 passing attempts for 218 yards and a touchdown pass. He also rushed the ball 12 times for 48 yards and 2 scores. It’s safe to say that the Jets offense will welcome Justin Fields back into the fold.<\/p>\n
