Week 16 Outlook
Availability
Bilal Powell is signing a one-day contract with the Jets, and retiring from the NFL, according to Ari Meirov.
Fantasy Impact
Powell last played in 2019 and spent his entire nine-year career as a member of the Jets.
Bilal Powell rushed seven times for 27 yards in the Jets' Week 17 win over the Bills.
Fantasy Impact
Powell is now headed to free agency, and the market will likely be lukewarm at best. Powell may land on a roster for 2020, but likely as nothing more than a backup or veteran presence. Powell figures not to carry any relevant fantasy value in 2020.
Bilal Powell rushed 19 times for 74 yards and caught two of his three targets for 14 yards in the Jets' Week 14 win over the Dolphins.
Fantasy Impact
With Le'Veon Bell sidelined, Bilal Powell stepped right into 20+ touches. While that should inspire confidence in the event Bell misses more time, Powell would draw matchups with the Ravens and Steelers in the next two weeks, which make him a risky option.
Jets running back Bilal Powell is inactive for the team's Week 2 matchup against the Cleveland Browns due to a coach's decision.
Fantasy Impact
With Bell playing and Montgomery set to back him up, Powell remains the odd man out in New Jersey.
Jets running back Bilal Powell is inactive for the team's Week 1 matchup against the Buffalo Bills.
Fantasy Impact
With Le'Veon Bell and Ty Montgomery now in New York, it seems as if Powell is the odd man out.
