The New England Patriots are listing Tom Brady as questionable vs. the New York Jets in Week 16.

Brady has a thigh injury that limited him in all three practices this week. It is highly unlikely this issue causes Brady to miss Saturday’s game.

This may help explain why he was held in check by the Denver Broncos last week. He finished 16-of-32 passing for 188 yards and no touchdowns. It was easily his worst game of the season, and while Denver is a great defense, Brady should do better.

That is definitely true this week vs. a Jets team that is just waiting for the season to mercifully end.

Fantasy Impact: If Brady is active, Yahoo! ranks him as the top quarterback in Week 16. He would face a Jets defense allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks over the last five weeks.

As long as Brady plays, keep him in your starting lineup.
