Mason Taylor Deemed Out for Second Straight Game

Friday, October 2, 10:37 PM

New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's road game against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. It's no surprise that the 22-year-old will miss a second straight appearance after not practicing since injuring his thumb in the team's 20-17 loss to the Packers in Week 2. The trio of Kenyon Sadiq, Jeremy Ruckert, and Jelani Woods will again divvy up the snaps with the second-year pro set to be inactive. It will be interesting to see how the snap share shakes out when Taylor returns to action. When healthy, he led the room by a solid margin, though that could change if Sadiq's Week 3 breakout weren't a fluke.

Eli Raridon Questionable With Thigh Issue

Friday, October 2, 10:00 PM

New England Patriots tight end Eli Raridon (thigh) is questionable for this weekend's road outing with the Buffalo Bills. Raridon missed two days of practice and subsequently missed a loss to the Jaguars after injuring his thigh in a Week 2 home game with the Steelers. That the rookie could improve his participation to limited leading up to Sunday is a step in the right direction, but it would seem that he's not out of the woods just yet. If the 22-year-old is inactive again, teammates Cameron Latu and Tanner Arkin will shoulder the snap load alongside starter Hunter Henry. Raridon isn't quite on the radar yet for redraft leagues, but he's a tantalizing stash in dynasty formats because of his strong athletic profile and standing on the depth chart.
