If Cooper Jr. Misses Time

Next man up: Isaiah Williams

Isaiah Williams is next on the Jets depth chart at wide receiver. The targets would likely spread across the offense rather than pass to one player, so he's a waiver add only if Cooper Jr. misses time.

Who else it affects

His absence would move work to the rest of the offense, and Geno Smith would lose one of his main options.
