New York Jets running back Chris Johnson rushed for 61 yards on 13 carries to go with 19 receiving yards on two catches against the New England Patriots on Thursday.
Chris Johnson is all but dead in fantasy leagues
Chris Johnson plays better, but he’s not where he needs to be. We break down the fantasy implications.

He left a lot of yards on the field and didn't even try to get out of bounds on a play on the last drive of the game. Johnson has had his best game since Week 1 against the Oakland Raiders and his touches have been on the downswing since, so it's hard to get excited about this one.
Chris Ivory has been fantastic and put up 107 yards, so Johnson lost even more ground. Basically, he'll need Ivory to miss time in order to see a featured workload.
Fantasy impact: The Jets need to run the ball a lot to have success, but CJ0K is not worth owning in most leagues. He'll get the Buffalo Bills in Week 8 in one of the worst matchups for any NFL back.
