Jace Amaro

Last season, the Jets completed eight passes to a tight end, a ridiculously low number. Jace Amaro, the team’s second-round pick in 2014, missed last season with a shoulder injury. Could he be the answer at the position? It will be interesting to see how the coaches use him in OTAs. Last year, before the injury, he was an afterthought.

Fantasy Impact: 

T.J. Hernandez in his preview of the 2015 Jets with Chan Gailey calling the shots: "The tight end has been somewhat of an afterthought for Chan Gailey. Only two tight ends have caught more than 40 balls with Gailey calling plays, with Tony Gonzalez the only player to finish as a TE1 under Gailey."

Jets Beat: Expect a lot of Jeremy Kerley

With No. 3 wide receiver Chris Owusu (knee scope) out and Eric Decker (sprained knee) listed as questionable/game-time decision, I would expect Jeremy Kerley to see a bunch of action.

Remember, Decker has mostly worked in the slot this year. That is Kerley's area of specialty.

Devin Smith will do some things in this game, but it's his NFL debut. Hard to expect a lot out of him. And I don't think the Jets' coaches really are. In terms of the tight ends, the Jets lost a potentially big asset when Jace Amaro suffered that season-ending shoulder injury. Jeff Cumberland just isn't a great receiving threat.

Todd Bowles mentioned Thursday that he's asked Cumberland and blocking tight end Kellen Davis "to do a lot of blocking thus far." With Brandon Marshall and Decker catching passes, the Jets haven't needed Cumberland in the passing game. That could definitely change this week, but I don't think you'll see a lot of targets for him.

Fantasy Impact: 

It looks like Kerley will benefit the most if Decker misses the game, and it looks like a good matchup on paper, but the Eagles defense hasn't been horrible the first couple weeks. Still, Kerley would be a bit of a risky play, but perhaps a better choice than Smith who looks like he'll make his debut but won't be a huge factor.

Jace Amaro placed on season-ending IR

The Jets on Tuesday placed tight end Jace Amaro, a second-year pro and potential major asset for their passing offense, on season-ending injured reserve with a torn labrum in his shoulder that will require surgery.

Coach Todd Bowles had previously said that Amaro, a former second-round draft pick who got hurt in the preseason opener Aug. 13 at Detroit, just had a shoulder sprain — and that he would miss only "a couple weeks."

That obviously didn't turn out to be the case. And now, Amaro's sophomore season with the Jets is over before it even started.

"When he got hurt, it was either a two-and-a-half, three-week period to get better," Bowles said. "Or if it didn't get any better and it was still as worse as it was, then we would have to go ahead and do surgery. So we gave him time to get better, and he didn't get better. So the end result is we've got to do surgery and put him on IR. He's still in a lot of pain. If you're in pain and you're not getting any better, you've got to fix it sooner than later."

Fantasy Impact: 

The Jets' top tight end is Jeff Cumberland, though he's not a major threat in the passing game. Amaro's injury provides a challenge for Cumberland to improve that part of his game, the story said. The Jets also have blocking tight end Kellen Davis, and two roster-fringe tight ends: Arthur Lynch and Wes Saxton.

Brandon Marshall

Geno Smith, Brandon Marshall meeting for throwing sessions before camp

About a month before camp, Geno Smith and most of the Jets' skill players will work out in Brandon Marshall's hometown, Chicago, so Marshall can spend more time with his newborn twins. They'll work on "chemistry, talking over the playbook and things we saw at the end of camp, things that we thought we needed to improve on,'' Smith said.

Fantasy Impact: 

It's usually not a good thing when a receiver changes teams, unless he's getting a promotion, which isn't really the case with Marshall. But it's a good sign that he and Smith are working on their chemistry, because they're going to need to be on the same page by the time training camp begins. Smith is expected to get an opportunity to start at least four games so that the franchise can decide if he’s their quarterback of the future. With the addition of Marshall, Eric Decker and receiving TE Jace Amaro in the last two years, the weapons around him are improved. He could work his way into the QB2/streaming conversation if he gets off to a good start.
