2024 Fantasy Outlook
Sherwood appeared in all 17 games for the Jets in 2023 but posted just 46 tackles (28 solo). C.J. Mosley and Quincy Williams are locked into starting linebacker roles, and because the Jets' base defense is a nickel set with three cornerbacks, the team rarely puts a third traditional linebacker on the field, which is why Sherwood didn't play more than 38 percent of defensive snaps in any game last season. Sherwood will likely remain in a reserve role in 2024 barring an injury to Mosley or Williams. Read Past Outlooks
Notches 12 tackles in win
Sherwood recorded 12 total tackles (eight solo) and a pass defensed in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Sherwood saw an increase in usage when C.J. Mosley (toe) was forced to exit the contest, playing 54 of the team's 66 total defensive snaps. Sherwood compiled a career-high 12 stops as a result and could be asked to operate in a similar role in Week 3 if Mosley is unable to play in the team's matchup with the Patriots on Thursday Night Football.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2021
Sherwood is poised to step into a starting role unless the Jets bolster their linebacker depth prior to the season. The 2021 fifth-round pick out of Auburn made four starts as a rookie before suffering a season-ending Achilles tear, then occupied a reserve role in 2022 while appearing in every game. Sherwood has 31 tackles in his NFL career.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Boasts key intangible
Connor Hughes of The Athletic believes Sherwood's communication skills will help him secure a roster spot with the Jets in 2022.
ANALYSIS
Sherwood had just 14 tackles in five games as a rookie before suffering a season-ending Achilles tear, but Hughes believes the 2021 fifth-round pick out of Auburn will make the team out of camp as the backup to C.J. Mosley at middle linebacker. New York is enthralled with the converted safety's potential as a linebacker, and according to Hughes, Sherwood's communication skills make him an ideal "Mike" linebacker, as he can handle the responsibility of quarterbacking the defense.
