</td></tr><tr><td class="bodyCopy">Jets RBs coach Anthony Lynn confirmed Shonn Greene won't be used on third downs.</td></tr><tr><td>

</td></tr><tr><td class="vaLink">Greene might get a heavy workload, but he's going to be a two-down runner that loses goal-line work to Tim Tebow. Couple that with his lack of special talent, and Greene presents no fantasy upside. Lynn is counting on Joe McKnight or Bilal Powell to emerge as the third-down back. "That job is wide open," he said.

<table border="0" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td class="bodyCopy">Jets coach Rex Ryan said at Monday's presser it's "possible" Shonn Greene could begin ceding more early-game touches to Bilal Powell or Joe McKnight.</td></tr><tr><td>

</td></tr><tr><td class="vaLink">"That’s certainly a possibility that we’ll look into," Ryan said. "We’ll look at anything that will help our team. Has that been discussed? No." Greene has struggled mightily through New York's first three games, gaining just 157 yards on 57 carries (2.8 YPC). Greene was subbed out for Powell on some of the most important plays in Sunday's win, and could be headed for a full-blown timeshare as early as Week 4. Now is absolutely the time to sell, but it may be too late. Powell is hardly a dynamo (22 carries, 88 yards), but could easily turn out to be the Jets' back to own going forward. McKnight isn't a legitimate threat for an increased role.
