Elijah Moore will not play for Jets in Week 7
New York Jets wide receiver Elijah Moore will not play Week 7 against the Denver Broncos on Sunday, per head coach Robert Saleh.
What It Means:
Moore arrived at the Jets facility Friday after requesting a trade one day prior, but Saleh said the disgruntled receiver's request will not be granted. Saleh added that Denzel Mims will be active Sunday for the first time this season, so there will be more snaps available for Mims, Braxton Berrios (back), and Jeff Smith. Corey Davis and Garrett Wilson will continue working as the starters in two-wide sets. The Jets selected Moore with the 34th overall pick in the 2021 draft.
The Broncos have the top rated defense in numberFire's schedule-adjusted metrics and they are allowing the second-fewest FanDuel points per game to the wide receiver position this season. Our models project Wilson to lead the Jets with 8.0 targets in Week 7 and Davis is second on the team at 5.1 targets.
