Chris Ivory having a big fantasy day against the Saints
Chris Ivory is burning his old team on Sunday. We break down the fantasy implications.

His big gainer came on a 52-yard stretch play to the right after the Jets O-line gave him a huge hole to get him cleanly to the second level. Ivory also had another big run on a stretch-right play and it seems like the Jets have game-planned to run more plays to the right.
Ivory picked up a 3-yard TD run with 2:43 left in the second quarter. The Jets have run the ball 18 times compared to the 14 passing attempts at the time of Ivory's score. They lost Jeremy Kerley for the game with an elbow injury and will need to run more out of necessity and to keep Drew Brees off the field.
Fantasy impact: Ivory has been solid coming into the game and he clearly looks to be over his hamstring injury that bothered him in September and October. Bilal Powell only had two carries at half. Ivory looks like a must-add player.
