Jets Add Tyler Conklin To Pair With C.J. Uzomah
3 years agoThe New York Jets signed free-agent tight end Tyler Conklin to an undisclosed deal on Wednesday, according to sources. The Jets have added both Conklin and former Cincinnati Bengals tight end C.J. Uzomah this offseason. Uzomah had 49 catches for 493 yards and five touchdowns in 16 regular season games in 2021 and he'll be the Jets top pass-catching tight end in 2022, but fantasy managers shouldn't automatically expect him to match or top his numbers from a season ago in a much less explosive offense. Conklin broke out with a 61-593-3 line on 87 targets in 17 games last year with Irv Smith missing the entire year due to injury. Unless Uzomah misses time with an injury, Conklin won't be on the fantasy map.
