TE could be bigger part of Jets offense

Jul 24, 2017

The tight ends are expected to be counted on more as pass catchers in new offensive coordinator John Morton’s system.

Austin Seferian-Jenkins, who had a productive spring and can participate in all of the team’s preseason practices in addition to the four exhibition games, will serve a two-game suspension at the start of the regular season. In addition to Seferian-Jenkins, the Jets have a young group of tight ends and it’ll be interesting to see who steps up in camp.

Fantasy Impact:

Down 30 pounds this offseason, Seferian-Jenkins looked quicker than he did after joining the Jets last September, the story went on to say. The fourth-year veteran, who had 10 receptions in Chan Gailey’s system, primarily ran with the first team throughout OTAs and minicamp as he showed good hands and separation. He has the most NFL experience of the unit and he could become a top target.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
