2024 Fantasy Outlook
Mosley is entering his 10th season as a pro, which is both the case for and against him. He has a lengthy track record of success, as in three full seasons with the Jets, he's played between 1,048 and 1,078 snaps while racking up a minimum of 150 tackles. Mosley also hasn't slowed down in coverage, breaking up seven passes in each of the past two seasons with one interception. The Jets restructured his deal his offseason and added very little to their linebacker room, meaning the team will be reliant upon Mosley for a significant number of snaps yet again. The downside is that at some point father time and workload will catch up to Mosley, even if there haven't been signs of it yet. That introduces some additional risk compared to other players ranked in a similar range. Read Past Outlooks
Placed on IR
The Jets placed Mosley (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Mosley had missed the Jets' last five games due to a herniated disk in his neck. Though he appeared to be making progress after turning in two full practices last week and another one Wednesday, he downgraded to no participation Thursday and Friday. With the Jets unlikely to make the postseason, Mosley will likely end the 2024 season on injured reserve, even though he's eligible to be activated Week 18. Jamien Sherwood should continue to start at middle linebacker in place of Mosley, who could find himself as a cap casualty this offseason.

Mosley and his five-year, $85 million contract looked like one of the all-time free-agent busts after playing only two games in 2019-20, but Robert Saleh saw the talent through the injuries. In the two years since Saleh took the helm for the Jets, Mosley has erupted for 326 tackles while missing only one game. Now 31, the middle linebacker's lost a step from his Ravens days and isn't an asset in coverage, but he's still plenty fast enough to fill a gap and drag down a runner. He'll remain the centerpiece of Saleh's defense for at least one more year.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Casts doubt on status for Thursday
Mosley is not optimistic about his ability to play Thursday against the Patriots, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Mosley called himself 50-50 to play due to a toe injury he suffered early in the second quarter of Sunday's win over the Titans. He described himself as pretty sore and with a diminished ability to push off with the injured foot. However, if the swelling goes down there's a chance he will be able to play through the pain. If he can't suit up, Jamien Sherwood would take over as the Jets' top inside linebacker.
