Jets' Michael Carter (ankle) officially out against Vikings in Week 13

The New York Jets have ruled out running back Michael Carter (ankle) for Sunday's Week 13 game against the Minnesota Vikings.

What It Means:

Carter suffered an ankle injury in Week 12, and while the second-year back was reportedly able to avoid a major injury, he'll still sit out this week's game against the Vikings. The Jets will likely employ a committee comprised of James Robinson, Zonovan Knight, and Ty Johnson this week.

Knight looked especially good in his Week 12 breakout game, getting opportunities even before Carter's injury and playing ahead of both Johnson and Robinson (who was a healthy scratch in that game). Our models currently project Knight, who has a $5,800 salary on FanDuel, to lead the way in this backfield with 11.4 fantasy points.
