Injury Knee
Est. Return 4/1/2023
2022 Fantasy Outlook
Fant quietly emerged as a quality starting left tackle last season before hurting his knee in Week 17. Now healthy, Fant will compete with Mekhi Becton, who's recovering from a knee injury of his own, for the Jets' starting left tackle spot. Should Becton win that competition, Fant will likely retain a starting role at right tackle. Read Past Outlooks
Shifts to IR
Fant (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Fant missed the majority of the season with a knee injury and was limited to only eight games as a result. He'll turn his focus to getting fully healthy for the 2023 campaign, while Mike Remmers will likely serve as the starting right guard Sunday against the Dolphins.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
Fant got a chance to start at right tackle last season, but he's better suited as a backup swing tackle capable of filling in on both the left and right sides. With the addition of Morgan Moses to start at right tackle, Fant will be pushed into a backup role behind Moses and left tackle Mekhi Becton.
