Bilal Powell and Joe McKnight will not practice Wednesday for the New York Jets, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN New York. Powell is still dealing with the dislocated shoulder that kept him out of last week's game against the New England Patriots. McKnight played Sunday despite a high ankle sprain, but was spotted on crutches Monday.
Bilal Powell, Joe McKnight miss Jets practice Wednesday: Fantasy implications
Bilal Powell and Joe McKnight will not practice Wednesday for the New York Jets, according to reports. We break down the fantasy implications.

Shonn Greene was forced to leave Sunday's game briefly with a head injury, but he was eventually able to return in overtime. There is no indication that he will be limited at all this week.
Fantasy Impact: With their top three running backs dinged up to varying degrees, the Jets have to be worried about depth going forward. Greene is still likely to play, but Powell and McKnight appear to be questionable at best.
Greene remains the only viable fantasy option among the trio. He has been effective lately, and continues to hog touches out of the backfield. Powell and McKnight don’t handle the ball enough to make much of any fantasy impact in standard leagues, even when healthy.
