Sadiq caught his lone target for six yards in Sunday's 28-25 loss to the Dolphins.
With Mason Taylor dominating the targets at tight end for the Jets, Sadiq continues to fade into the background for an offense that is unable to support more than a couple pass catchers in the box score each week. Sadiq has just four catches for 21 yards over the last three weeks with Taylor back in the lineup.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Another quiet game in Week 6 loss
Rotowire
Sadiq caught one of three targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 26-19 loss to the Patriots.
Sadiq was able to clear concussion protocol during the week, but the rookie tight end has been playing through minor injuries all season. Since catching seven passes for 105 yards in Week 3 against the Lions, Sadiq has just three catches for 15 yards on 10 targets over the last three contests. He's become waiver-wire fodder in redraft leagues.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Suiting up in Week 6
Rotowire
Sadiq (concussion) is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Sadiq took a questionable tag into the weekend, but after putting in a full practice Friday, he seemingly passed the final step of concussion protocol by gaining clearance from an independent neurologist Saturday. The rookie tight end isn't expected to face any major restrictions with his snap count during the Week 6 contest.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Slated to suit up in Week 6
Rotowire
Sadiq (concussion) is in line to be available for Sunday's game at New England, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Sadiq entered the concussion protocol during last Sunday's win against the Browns, and after opening Week 6 prep with back-to-back limited sessions, he capped it Friday with a full practice and a questionable designation. Such a progression suggested he only required clearance from an independent neurologist to be available this Sunday, something that'll be confirmed about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Listed as questionable after FP
Rotowire
Sadiq (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots after logging a full practice Friday.
Sadiq is progressing through the concussion protocol and likely just needs clearance from a neurologist. The Jets listed him as a limited participant Wednesday and Thursday before upgrading to full on Friday. Kickoff is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. ET in Foxborough.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Could play Sunday
Rotowire
Sadiq (concussion) is trending toward playing in Sunday's game against the Patriots, according to Around The NFL.
After limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, Sadiq is upgrading to full participation Friday. If he clears the concussion protocol, he would be in line to resume his role in the Jets' tight end rotation Sunday against New England.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Limited again Thursday
Rotowire
Sadiq (concussion) remained limited at Thursday's practice.
Sadiq remains in the NFL's five-step concussion protocol after being confirmed to have suffered a concussion during this past Sunday's win over the Browns. He will need to register a full practice in order to clear the protocol and has one chance remaining to do so Friday ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots. Mason Taylor, Jeremy Ruckert, Jelani Woods and Andrew Beck are the Jets' healthy TE options.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Manages limited practice
Rotowire
Sadiq (concussion) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
Per Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic, head coach Aaron Glenn said prior to practice that Sadiq remains in the five-step concussion protocol, but the rookie tight end apparently made enough progress to get in some on-field work during the Jets' first Week 6 session. Sadiq will still need to upgrade to full practice participation by Friday in addition to receiving the green light to play from an independent neurologist in order to clear the protocol prior to Sunday's game against the Patriots. Mason Taylor would be in line to serve as the Jets' top pass-catching option at tight end if Sadiq can't gain clearance.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Concussion confirmed
Rotowire
Sadiq won't return to Sunday's game versus the Browns due to a concussion.
Prior to having a concussion check in Week 5, Sadiq had two catches (on three targets) for three yards and lost a fumble. Mason Taylor should serve as the Jets' primary tight end for the rest of Sunday's contest, though Jeremy Ruckert may be more involved in the passing game;.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Exits Sunday for concussion check
Rotowire
Sadiq is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Browns after exiting in the third quarter to be evaluated for a head injury.
The Jets will presumably put Sadiq through concussion tests before determining whether he's fit to return to the game. Prior to exiting the contest, Sadiq recorded two catches for three yards on three targets and also lost a fumble.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Held catchless by Bears
Rotowire
Sadiq (back) didn't catch any of his four targets in Sunday's 23-12 loss to the Bears.
Sadiq played through a questionable tag and tied Garrett Wilson for the team lead in targets, but the rookie first-round pick failed to record a catch as Geno Smith completed only eight passes. The Jets' banged-up offense will try to bounce back when they return home for Week 5 against the Browns. Sadiq had 105 receiving yards and a touchdown in Week 3 against the Lions but has recorded only 38 receiving yards across the other three outings of his young NFL career.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Active for Week 4
Rotowire
Sadiq (back) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Bears.
A back injury led to Sadiq being limited at practice from Wednesday through Friday, but it will not prevent him from suiting up for Week 4. It's unclear how close Sadiq is to 100 percent, but he is coming off a game in which he racked up seven receptions, 105 yards and a score on eight targets, and he could be busy again with fellow pass catchers Adonai Mitchell (finger), Mason Taylor (thumb) and Omar Cooper (ankle) all unavailable Sunday.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Sleeper TEs
Rotowire
Adonai Mitchell (finger) and Mason Taylor (thumb) are out for Week 4 at Chicago, and that bodes well for Sadiq. I'm hopeful Sadiq didn't have the Lions' bump of playing a terrible secondary in Week 3 when he had his breakout game of 23.5 PPR points with seven catches for 105 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. The Bears are much tougher on tight ends so far this season, with no touchdowns allowed or any tight end scoring more than 5.9 PPR points, but Chicago has faced Carolina, Minnesota and Philadelphia (without Dallas Goedert). I'm willing to trust Sadiq as a low-end starter in all leagues.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Another limited practice Thursday
Rotowire
Sadiq (back) remained limited at practice Thursday.
Sadiq has been limited in each of the Jets' first two practices leading up to Sunday's game against the Bears. The rookie tight end took a hard landing on a diving catch that resulted in the first receiving touchdown of his NFL career in the Week 3 loss to the Lions, so his back injury may be connected to that play. Sadiq will have one more chance to increase his practice participation level Friday before the Jets release their Week 4 injury statuses.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Sleepers (Start/Sit)
Rotowire
Adonai Mitchell (finger) and Mason Taylor (thumb) missed practice Wednesday after both were out in Week 3 against Detroit, and that bodes well for Sadiq heading into Week 4 at Chicago. I'm hopeful Sadiq didn't have the Lions' bump of playing a terrible secondary in Week 3 when he had his breakout game of 23.5 PPR points with seven catches for 105 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. The Bears are much tougher on tight ends so far this season with no touchdowns allowed or any tight end scoring more than 5.9 PPR points, but Chicago has faced Carolina, Minnesota and Philadelphia (without Dallas Goedert).

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Limited in Wednesday's practice
Rotowire
Sadiq (undisclosed) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
It's unclear if Sadiq suffered an injury last Sunday against Detroit or if this is related to his offseason hernia surgery. Coming off a big Week 3 in which he posted a 7-105-1 receiving line on eight targets versus the Lions, Sadiq is poised for a significant pass-catching role Sunday against the Bears as long as he's healthy.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Sleeper TEs
Rotowire
Mason Taylor (thumb) is out, and Sadiq has an amazing matchup in Week 3 at Detroit. He's worth using as a starter in deeper leagues. In Week 1, the Lions allowed the Saints to have the No. 7 Fantasy tight end for that scoring period in Juwan Johnson (14.4 PPR points) and the No. 10 Fantasy tight end in Noah Fant (13.3 PPR points). In Week 2, Dalton Kincaid was the No. 3 Fantasy tight end for that scoring period (22.5 PPR points). I don't expect Sadiq to do that since he only has five catches for 38 yards on six targets, along with a rushing touchdown, in two games. But he could go off given the matchup at Detroit.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Week 3 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Sadiq could be a sneaky starter in deeper leagues in Week 3 against the Lions, who are No. 1 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends. Through two games, Detroit has allowed Juwan Johnson, Noah Fant, Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox to combine for 16 catches for 187 yards and four touchdowns on 25 targets. Sadiq has four catches for 38 yards on six targets, along with a rushing touchdown, but he could have a breakout game in Week 3 given the matchup. He's worth adding for 1 percent of your remaining FAAB.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Creeps into No. 1 TE conversation
Rotowire
Sadiq caught all three of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 23-10 win over the Titans. He added one rush for a three-yard touchdown.
Sadiq caught one more pass than current listed No. 1 tight end Mason Taylor, and his 31 yards dwarfed Taylor's negative two. The first-round rookie also showcased his versatility when he scored a three-yard rushing touchdown on an end-around early in the first quarter. Sadiq could eventually take over as the primary big-bodied option for the Jets now that he is fully healthy and has experienced the NFL regular season.

Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Listed as full-go Wednesday
Rotowire
Sadiq (hernia) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
The first-round rookie has bounced back from his offseason hernia surgery and is now gearing up for his NFL debut this Sunday. Sadiq was back to participating in positional drills earlier in the week. At this stage, Sadiq is very much on track to be ready for the start of the season.
