It’s worth noting that head coach Rex Ryan has stated that he expects Decker will play, which is actually kind of surprising given the nature of his injury. Decker has been dealing with hamstring issues since training camp, and he was forced out of the team’s last game early in the first quarter, returned to the game in the second, and almost immediately left again due to his injuries.
Fantasy Impact: Decker has played in all three games this season, catching five passes for 74 yards in Week 1 and four passes for 63 yards and a touchdown in Week 2. But he only caught one pass for 19 yards before succumbing to his hamstring injury against the Chicago Bears in Week 3. Hamstring injuries can take an awful long time for recovery, especially if a player suffers a setback from not giving it enough time to properly heal.
