John Franklin-Myers

27-Year-Old Defensive EndDE
New York Jets
2023 Fantasy Outlook
After posting 35 tackles and 6.0 sacks in 2021, Franklin-Myers recorded similar numbers in 2022, with 38 tackles and 5.0 sacks. The versatile defensive lineman can line up both inside and outside, but after the Jets used first-round picks on defensive ends in each of the past two drafts, JFM will likely find himself playing primarily on the interior of the defensive line at defensive tackle, which will make it tough to significantly improve his sack or tackle totals.

Finishes 2023 with 3.5 sacks
DENew York Jets
January 19, 2024
Franklin-Myers posted 3.5 sacks among his 33 tackles (15 solo) and added three passes defensed over 17 games in 2023.
ANALYSIS
Franklin-Myers is overshadowed by some bigger names on the Jets' defense, but he's a key contributor in his own right. JFM didn't miss a game in 2023 and played more than half of the team's defensive snaps in all but three games. His ability to shift between the edge and interior should allow Franklin-Myers to reclaim a prominent role on New York's defensive line in 2024.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
Franklin-Myers is a versatile piece along the defensive line for the Jets, as he's able to play both inside and on the edge. He had 35 tackles and six sacks last season, earning a four-year, $55 million extension from New York. JFM's versatility should allow him to continue playing a three-down role in 2022 as he looks to build on last year's career highs.
Franklin-Myers was good at pressuring the quarterback last season but totaled only three sacks in 15 games as the Jets' secondary failed to hold up behind him. He'll likely run into similar problems this season and will have to battle for playing time along a deep defensive line, but there's more to JFM than immediately meets the eye given his pedestrian stats.
