Tyler Conklin
TE - New York Jets - Questionable
Availability
Jets TE Tyler Conklin (calf) did not participate in practice Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Conklin appears to have suffered a calf injury in the Jets' lopsided loss to the Bills. His status will be worth monitoring heading into the season finale against Miami.
Tyler Conklin caught 8-of-8 targets for 57 yards and one touchdown in the Jets 40-17 loss to the Bills.
Fantasy Impact
Conklin lead the team in receptions with his season-high eight receptions. The bulk of his work came late in the game with backup QB Tyrod Taylor, but he should continue to see his usual target share (five or more in the last four games) against Miami in Week 18.
Tyler Conklin caught 5-of-7 targets for 59 yards in the Jets 19-9 loss to the Rams.
Fantasy Impact
Conklin was second on the team in receiving yards, just falling behind Davante Adams. This was Conklin's first game with over five targets since the Jets loss to the Vikings in early October. Conklin will look to build off this performance against the Bills in Week 17.
Tyler Conklin has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars due to a personal matter.
Fantasy Impact
Conklin's absence is related to the impending birth of his first child. He did not travel with the team to Jacksonville but may attempt to join them before the game. If Conklin remains out, Jeremy Ruckert will step in as the Jets' top tight end. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups accordingly and consider Ruckert a potential streaming option in deeper leagues.
Tyler Conklin caught 3-of-5 targets for 33 yards in the Jets 32-26 loss to the Dolphins.
Fantasy Impact
Conklin has seen five targets in each of his last two games, but has not found the end zone in his last five outings. The veteran tight end will look to break that streak against the Jaguars in Week 15.
