New York Jets TE Dustin Keller sat out practice Thursday with hamstring soreness, reports Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News. Keller was limited in Wednesday's practice, so it's a discouraging step backwards for his Week 2 status against the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was a fantasy non-factor in Week 1, making one catch for seven yards in a blowout win over the Buffalo Bills.

Fantasy Impact: It’s the same hamstring injury that’s been hampering him in preseason, and he was clearly not 100% on Sunday despite suiting up and playing 43% of the team’s offensive snaps. If you have other TE options, use them this week and don’t count on Keller to contribute.
