Jets Re-Sign Jelani Woods

Thursday, March 5, 3:45 PM

The New York Jets re-signed tight end Jelani Woods to an undisclosed deal on Thursday, according to Eric Allen of NewYorkJets.com. Woods was initially claimed off waivers from the Indianapolis Colts last August. The 27-year-old played 60 offensive snaps and 12 special teams snaps over four games with the Jets in 2025, catching just one of three targets for four yards. He missed the 2023 and 2024 seasons with Indy due to hamstring and turf-toe injuries. Woods was the 73rd overall pick in the third round by the Colts in 2022 out of the University of Virginia. He caught 25 of his 40 targets for 312 yards and three touchdowns in 15 games (two starts) in his rookie year before the injuries hit. At best, Woods will enter the 2026 campaign in New York as the TE3 behind Mason Taylor and Jeremy Ruckert. He's off the fantasy radar in all formats.

Trey McBride Continues to Produce at an Elite Level in Week 8

Sunday, November 1, 7:30 PM

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride caught seven of his eight targets for 72 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's Week 8 overtime win over the Dallas Cowboys. McBride caught four passes during his scoring drive alone, which helped pull the Cardinals within three points of Dallas late in the fourth quarter. The 26-year-old has now posted double-digit fantasy points (PPR) in each of his eight games this season, and he ranks as the overall TE1 in total scoring this season. The Cardinals' offense has shown that it can put up a fight in any given week, which has allowed McBride to maintain steady volume and production through the first half of the season. He has a tough stretch of schedule coming up against the Seahawks, Rams, and Chiefs, but he should continue to be started as a high-end TE1 in all fantasy leagues.
