Stephen Hill injury update: Jets receiver limited in practice, hampering fantasy value

The rookie receiver did not have a full practice, is he ready to go against the Patriots? We break down the fantasy implications.

Ed Mulholland-US PRESSWIRE - Presswire

New York Jets wide receiver Stephen Hill was limited in practice today with a hamstring injury. Hill was able to play in Week 6 against the Colts and he caught three passes for 23 yards and a touchdown. It was his first production in a game since his two touchdown performance in Week 1 against the Bills. New York is already thin at that position with Santonio Holmes on injured reserve, Clyde Gates hurting with a shoulder injury, and cornerback Antonio Cromartie lining up as a receiver at times.

Fantasy Take: Hill might be the most talented receiver on the Jets right now, but that’s not saying much. He’s a highly-interesting prospect, but still very raw and too early to mark him as a fantasy starter. There’s also the issue of who is throwing him the ball.
