Fantasy impact: The New York Jets are playing surprisingly well to start the season. Most of that solid play is coming on the defensive side of the football as is usually the case with the Jets franchise, but quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is doing a good job of finding receivers when they are open.
Having teammate Brandon Marshall on the field to give the Jets another potent option in the passing game is certainly going to open things up for Decker throughout the course of the year.
For now though, Decker will preserve his impressive start to the season with hopes to return in Week 4.
