Fantasy football Week 8 waiver wire pickups: Rising Jets rookie is a must-add

Navigating the waiver wire is incredibly important to fantasy football success. Each week, Jets X-Factor dives into the waiver wire for the must-adds to your fantasy football team.

New York Jets RB Michael Carter finds himself back on this list after an impressive performance and increased usage in Week 7. Can he be the team’s RB1 going forward?

Quarterback

Carson Wentz (38% Rostered)

I’m pretty surprised to find Carson Wentz on this list. He hasn’t taken a complete leap forward reuniting with Colts head coach Frank Reich, but he does look much improved from his 2020 season.
