Conklin (hip) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Bills, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Conklin was a limited participant in practice all week, which typically is a positive sign in regard to gameday activation. The veteran is coming off one of his better days on the young season, tallying six catches for 55 yards in the team's Week 5 loss. Expect more information regarding his status to arrive before the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff Monday.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Sleepers (Start/Sit)
Rotowire
Davante Adams isn't being traded to the Jets in time to play in Monday's game against the Bills, so I like Conklin as a low-end starter in all leagues. Conklin has scored at least 11.5 PPR points in two of his past three games, and he has 17 targets in his past two outings against Denver and Minnesota. Three tight ends have already scored at least 8.0 PPR points against Buffalo this year.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Another limited practice Friday
Rotowire
Conklin (hip) remained limited in practice Friday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Conklin also was limited Thursday. The starting tight end will have one more opportunity to upgrade to full participation as he tries to avoid an injury designation for Monday's home game against the Bills.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Limited with hip injury
Rotowire
Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich said Thursday that Conklin (hip) will be limited in practice, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Conklin is coming off the best game of his 2024 campaign, having secured six of nine targets for 55 yards in New York's 23-17 loss to the Vikings in London. The veteran tight end will have two more opportunities to increase his activity level at practice before Monday's key divisional matchup against the Bills. Conklin worked as the No. 3 target for the Jets' offense behind Garrett Wilson and Allen Lazard in Week 5, but with Albert Breer of SI.com reporting that passing game coordinator Todd Downing will take over offensive playcalling duties, changes could be on deck for Aaron Rodgers (ankle/hamstring) and this offense.
I won't lie to you guys. There's not a good streaming tight end option this week. Go make sure Evan Engram isn't available, he's a free agent in 30% of leagues. Conklin does have 23 targets in his last three games combined, which is awesome. He's averaged double-digit Fantasy points in that stretch, which is good enough to qualify him as the top streamer, even in a bad matchup.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Week 6 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Conklin has scored at least 11.5 PPR points in two of his past three games, and he has 17 targets in his past two outings against Denver and Minnesota. We'll see if the Jets make a trade for Davante Adams this week, but if they don't, then I like Conklin as a low-end starter against Buffalo on Monday night. He's worth adding for 5-10 percent of your remaining FAB.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Season-best six catches
Rotowire
Conklin recorded six receptions on nine targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Vikings.
Conklin emerged as a favorite target of Aaron Rodgers in a pass-heavy game script, finishing third on the team with nine targets. He had a few big plays in the first half, highlighted by gains of 25 and 13 yards. The Jets' passing offense is heavily concentrated, and Conklin should remain a priority behind Garrett Wilson and Allen Lazard.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Sleeper TEs
Rotowire
Conklin is worth using as a low-end starter in Week 5 in a revenge game against the Vikings in London. He has 14 targets in his past two games against the Patriots and Broncos, and he has nine catches for 110 yards over that span. He should continue to be a factor for Aaron Rodgers this week, and Conklin has a favorable matchup in Week 5 at Minnesota. The Vikings have allowed two tight ends in the past three games to score at least 17.3 PPR points, and hopefully Conklin can find the end zone for the first time this year.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Four catches in Week 4 loss
Rotowire
Conklin caught four of eight targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 10-9 loss to the Broncos.
After leading the Jets with 93 receiving yards in a 24-3 win against the Patriots the week before, Conklin crashed back down to earth despite tying Garrett Wilson and Allen Lazard for the team lead in targets against the Broncos. Conklin didn't catch either of his two first-half targets and had a 12-yard catch in the third quarter nullified by a penalty, but he chipped in a few short catches after that point to at least salvage a passable PPR performance. Conklin and the Jets will try to bounce back against the Vikings in a Week 5 trip to London.

Conklin had a breakout game in Week 3 against New England with five catches for 93 yards on six targets, and he could build off that performance in Week 4 against the Broncos. Garrett Wilson will likely struggle in a tough matchup against Patrick Surtain, and Aaron Rodgers could once again lean on Conklin. He's worth using as a low-end starter in all leagues.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Breakout effort in Week 3 win
Rotowire
Conklin brought in five of six targets for 93 yards in the Jets' 24-3 win over the Patriots on Thursday night.
Conklin was the surprise co-leader in receptions on the night for the Jets while also setting the pace in receiving yards by a very wide margin. Conklin recorded multiple chunk gains, including his game-long 22-yard grab in the second quarter that got the ball down to the Patriots' six-yard line. There had been preseason talk of Conklin being a potential beneficiary of Rodgers being under center, but Thursday night was the first time that came to fruition after the veteran tight end generated just a 2-16-0 line through the first two games. Conklin will look to carry over the momentum into a Week 4 home matchup against the Broncos on Sunday, Sept. 29.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Another one-catch game
Rotowire
Conklin caught one of two targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans.
Conklin saw one fewer target than backup tight end Jeremy Ruckert, though the latter finished without a catch. Conklin was also on the field for 32 more offensive snaps than Ruckert. With just one catch in each of the Jets' first two games, Conklin looks like he'll be playing a smaller role in the passing game with Aaron Rodgers under center after racking up 87 targets in each of his first two seasons with the team. Conklin's involvement as a receiver will likely remain limited in Thursday's game against the Patriots.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Just one catch on MNF
Rotowire
Conklin caught one of two targets for six yards in Monday's 32-19 loss to the 49ers.
Conklin came up empty on his lone target from Aaron Rodgers, but he caught a pass from backup Tyrod Taylor on the Jets' final possession after Rodgers went to the bench with the game out of reach. No other Jets tight end drew a target, so at least Conklin's safely atop the depth chart, but his lack of targets from Rodgers was disappointing considering Conklin had at least three catches in all but four games last season. Conklin will look to bounce back Week 2 against the Titans.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Week 1 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
I'm curious to see how Conklin does with a healthy Aaron Rodgers, and Conklin has earned exactly 87 targets for three years in a row. It wouldn't be a surprise if Conklin is second on the Jets in targets behind Garrett Wilson, and Conklin could be a low-end starter in PPR this year.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Yet to suit up in preseason
Rotowire
Conklin didn't play in Saturday's 15-12 preseason win over the Panthers.
Conklin has been rested thus far in the preseason along with the Jets' other starting skill players on offense. The Jets haven't gotten much production from the tight end position in Conklin's absence during the exhibition slate, so the 29-year-old tight end seems safely locked into the top spot on the depth chart heading into the 2024 regular season, which will commence after the Jets round out their preseason Saturday, Aug. 24 against the Giants.

Jets' Tyler Conklin: Three straight years of 87 targets
Rotowire
Conklin caught two of three targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 17-3 win over the Patriots. He finishes the season with 61 catches on 87 targets for 621 yards.
Conklin finished with exactly 87 targets for the third consecutive season, and he caught exactly 61 of those passes for the second time in that stretch. After scoring three touchdowns in each of those previous two seasons, Conklin failed to find the end zone in 2023. He'll likely reprise his role atop the tight end depth chart in the final year of his contract with the Jets next season.
