New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin caught two of his three targets for 16 yards and a touchdown in a 32-20 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 18. Conklin made his way into history books as he was on the receiving end of the 500th touchdown pass of Aaron Rodgers' career in the second quarter. The veteran tight end was quietly productive in 2024, finishing with 51 catches for 449 yards and four touchdowns in 16 games. Conklin is now slated to become an unrestricted free-agent this offseason and should have little trouble finding work with four straight 50-catch seasons under his belt.

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin (calf) and defensive tackle Quinnen Williams (hamstring) are officially active for Sunday's Week 18 contest against the Miami Dolphins. Both players had been listed as questionable. Despite the Jets already being eliminated from playoff contention, they're still playing their starters (including Conklin and Williams) as they look to play spoiler against Miami. This news will be well received by fantasy managers invested in Conklin's production. The 29-year-old will look to build on last week's strong performance in which he caught eight passes for 57 yards and a touchdown. Meanwhile, Williams remains an anchor on defense with his 37 tackles and six sacks through 15 contests in 2024.

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin (calf) is listed as questionable heading into his team's season finale against the Miami Dolphins in Week 18. Assuming Conklin is able to play through his calf injury he draws a plus matchup against a Dolphins defense that is allowing the 12th-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this season. Conklin turned in his best fantasy performance of the season in a Week 17 loss to the Buffalo Bills and will be worth a look as a TE2 in fantasy this Sunday if he ultimately suits up on Sunday.

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin (calf) is missing a second straight practice this week on Thursday. Conklin picked up a calf injury in the Week 17 blowout loss to the division-rival Buffalo Bills and is now trending toward missing the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival Miami Dolphins unless he can return to practice on Friday. The 29-year-old is coming off a season-high eight-catch performance last Sunday in which he also recorded 57 receiving yards and his third touchdown of the year. The Jets have nothing to play for this weekend, so it's unlikely they'll try to force Conklin out onto the field if he's not 100 percent. If he is not active for what could be quarterback Aaron Rodgers' final game in the NFL, Jeremy Ruckert and Kenny Yeboah would battle for TE1 duties in New York.

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin (calf) did not practice with the rest of the team on Wednesday. Conklin apparently picked up a calf injury in the Week 17 loss to the division-rival Buffalo Bills in which he had one of his best showings of the season. The 29-year-old caught all eight of his targets for 57 yards and a touchdown, but now his availability will be in question heading into the regular-season finale in Week 18 versus the division-rival Miami Dolphins. If Conklin is unable to get back on the practice field this week, the Jets would have more playing time available for tight ends Jeremy Ruckert and Kenny Yeboah, although neither player would excite fantasy managers setting DFS lineups. In his third year with the Jets in 2024, Conklin has barely moved the fantasy needle, catching 49 passes for 433 yards and three touchdowns on 69 targets in 15 games.
Jan 2, 2025 10:13 AM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin caught all eight of his targets for 57 yards and a touchdown while catching a two-point conversion in a 40-14 loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 17. Conklin finished second on the team in receiving while hauling in a 20-yard touchdown pass from Tyrod Taylor in the fourth quarter, his third touchdown catch of the season. The veteran tight end has come on strong over the past two games, having caught 13 passes for 116 yards and a touchdown over that span. He will cap off his 2024 season against the Miami Dolphins in Week 18.
Dec 29, 2024 9:11 PM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin was productive in a Week 16 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, catching five passes for 59 yards. He will look to keep rolling in Week 17's road matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The Bills have been solid against tight ends this season, allowing the 15th-fewest fantasy points per game to the position. Conklin has 12 catches over his past three games but he hasn't shown much of a ceiling in fantasy this year, leaving him as a low-end TE2 heading into Week 17.
Dec 27, 2024 10:08 PM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin caught five of his seven targets for 59 yards in a 19-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 16. Conklin surprisingly finished second on the Jets in receiving yards, just nine behind leader Davante Adams in the low-scoring loss. The veteran tight end has shown a nice floor in PPR leagues of late, catching 12 passes on 17 targets over his past three games. While he only has two touchdowns on the season, Conklin may be worth a look as a deep-league streaming option against the Buffalo Bills if desperate in Week 17.
Dec 22, 2024 4:41 PM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin is expected back after missing Week 15's win over the Jacksonville Jaguars with a personal issue. The Jets will host the Los Angeles Rams in Week 16 in what shapes up as a nice matchup for Conklin. The Rams have struggled against tight ends this season, allowing the 10th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Conklin hasn't been a major piece of the Jets offense this season but he has shown a decent floor in PPR leagues with at least three catches and 32 yards in three of his past six contests. Conklin sets up as a mid-range TE3 in fantasy this weekend and should only be started out of desperation.
Dec 20, 2024 9:08 PM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin (personal) has been downgraded to out ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Conklin didn't travel with the team for this game while he deals with a personal matter. His absence means that Jeremy Ruckert will move into the No. 1 tight end role for this game. Ruckert doesn't offer much fantasy value considering he hasn't seen more than two targets in a game since Week 8. He might see a few more targets with Conklin unavailable, but it probably won't be enough to warrant streaming him in fantasy formats.
Dec 15, 2024 9:15 AM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin has shown some signs of life over his past two games, catching seven of his 10 targets for 65 yards over that span. Conklin will look to remain involved in the team's offense heading into a road matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 15. The Jaguars have been generous to opposing tight ends this season, allowing the seventh-most fantasy points per game to the position. Despite the plus matchup, Conklin hasn't shown much of a ceiling in fantasy this season and should be treated as nothing more than a high-end TE3 for Week 15.
Dec 13, 2024 9:54 PM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin caught three of his five targets for 33 yards in a 32-26 overtime loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 14. Conklin finished fourth on the Jets in targets in the close loss while posting his best yardage total since October 6 against the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran tight end has been trending up over the past two weeks, catching seven of his 10 targets for 65 yards over that span. He will be a low-end TE2 heading into Week 15 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Dec 8, 2024 10:54 PM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin turned in his best performance in weeks in a Week 13 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, catching four passes for 32 yards. The veteran tight end will look to build upon that performance in a Week 14 road matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins have been a decent matchup for tight ends this season, allowing the 12th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Conklin has turned in a few useful fantasy outings this season but he is far too inconsistent to trust in starting lineups heading into Week 14.
Dec 6, 2024 9:37 PM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin caught four of his five targets for 32 yards in a 26-21 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 13. Conklin wound up finishing third on the Jets in targets, catches, and receiving yards in the close loss to Seattle. It was the veteran's first productive game in over a month as he had caught just six passes for 54 yards in his previous four games. Conklin will look to build upon this performance in Week 14 against the Miami Dolphins.
Dec 1, 2024 7:29 PM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin heads out of his bye to face off against the Seattle Seahawks at home in Week 13. Conklin has been one of the main Jets pass catchers negatively affected by the trade that brought Davante Adams to the team as he has just 10 catches in the five games since the latter joined the team. The Seahawks represent a decent matchup for tight ends as they are allowing the 13th-most fantasy points per game to the position but Conklin isn't a big enough piece of the offense to take advantage of this in fantasy. He settles in as a low-end TE3 in fantasy and should not be in consideration for starting lineups this weekend.
Nov 29, 2024 9:12 PM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin has been quiet of late, having caught just two passes for five yards over his past two games. The veteran tight end will look to bounce back against the Indianapolis Colts at home in Week 11. The Colts represent an excellent matchup for Conklin as they are allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this season. That being said, Conklin is not a major piece of the passing attack for the Jets and he may struggle to get the targets needed to take advantage of this cake matchup. Treat Conklin as a low-end TE2 who is worth a look as a streaming option if desperate in fantasy leagues.
Nov 16, 2024 8:58 AM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin (ankle) is officially active for Week 10 against the Arizona Cardinals. He had been listed as questionable despite practicing in full all week long. Conklin has appeared in all nine games this season, catching a modest 27 passes for 237 yards and two touchdowns. He is 19th in tight-end fantasy points this season and will continue to rank in the TE2 tier on Sunday.
Nov 10, 2024 3:00 PM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin (ankle) is officially questionable for his team's road matchup against the Arizona Cardinals this Sunday. The 29-year-old popped up on Friday's practice report with an ankle issue but could still log a full session. The practice participation is encouraging, but a late-week add to the report is mildly concerning regarding his status for Sunday. Conklin had some nice production earlier in the season but has been mostly an afterthought with the team's addition of star wideout Davante Adams to the offense. If the seventh-year veteran can't suit up, teammate Jeremy Ruckert projects to slot into the lead TE spot, with Kenny Yeboah rotating in to give him a breather. If he can, he'd be tough to trust as a viable option -- sitting at RotoBaller's PPR TE22 for this weekend's slate of games.
Nov 8, 2024 9:05 PM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin lost three yards on his lone catch in a 21-13 win over the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. Conklin drew just two targets in the game as Aaron Rodgers directed 21 of his 32 pass attempts toward either Garrett Wilson or Davante Adams. That didn't leave much else for the rest of the Jets pass catchers, including Conklin who was outproduced by fellow tight ends Kenny Yeboah (one catch for 12 yards) and Jeremy Ruckert (one catch for four yards). Conklin will look to regroup heading into a Week 10 road matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
Nov 1, 2024 5:13 AM EST
New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin caught a touchdown, his second of the season, in a loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Conklin will look to keep it going against the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. The Texans have been tough on tight ends this season, allowing just the 30th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Conklin has turned in a few nice games for fantasy this season but this is not the week to trust him in starting lineups. Treat him as a low-end TE2 this weekend.
