  • Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Pops up for 49 yards in loss

    Sadiq caught all four of his targets for 49 yards in Sunday's 35-12 loss to the Chiefs.

    After taking a back seat to Mason Taylor in recent weeks, Sadiq out-targeted his tight end teammate four to two against Kansas City. The rookie also closed the gap on Taylor in terms of routes, as Taylor ran 21 to Sadiq's 20 on Geno Smith's 38 dropbacks. It was easily Sadiq's most productive game since posting a 7-105-1 line in Week 3 against Detroit. He's not yet playable in most fantasy formats.

  • Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: One grab in loss to Las Vegas

    Sadiq caught one of two targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 38-33 loss to the Raiders.

    The rookie tight end played 31 of 64 offensive snaps against Las Vegas and ran just 15 routes on Geno Smith's 35 dropbacks. He continues to play behind Mason Taylor, who recorded three grabs for 19 yards on five targets across 19 routes. The Jets are using four tight ends on game days, and this offense isn't able to support more than a couple pass catchers for fantasy each week. Outside of his 7-105-1 receiving performance in Week 3 against the Lions, Sadiq has a total of 10 catches for 79 yards across his seven other contests.

  • Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: One catch in Week 7 loss

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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: Stuck in concussion protocol

    Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said that Sadiq remains in concussion protocol and won't practice Wednesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

    Sadiq was unable to return to Sunday's 17-12 win over the Browns after exiting in the third quarter and getting diagnosed with a concussion. He'll likely need to get in some form of practice Thursday and/or Friday in addition to gaining clearance from an independent neurologist in order to exit the five-step protocol prior to Sunday's game against the Patriots. If Sadiq isn't available to play this weekend, Mason Taylor would be in line to serve as the Jets' top pass-catching tight end.

  • Jets' Kenyon Sadiq: Concussion confirmed

    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

    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.
