Good to go
Corley (coach's decision) is listed as active for Sunday's matchup with the Rams. Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Corley has been a healthy scratch the previous two weeks for New York. However, he will operate as the No. 5 option Sunday behind Garrett Wilson, Davante Adams, Allen Lazard and Xavier Gipson. Barring any injuries ahead of him, the pass catcher does not figure to make much of an offensive impact.

Inactive again in Week 15
Conley (coach's decision) is a healthy inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Randy Lange of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: The Jets will keep five receivers active ahead of Corley, who will be a healthy scratch for the second week in a row. The third-round pick out of Western Kentucky has been a major disappointment during his rookie season, having played just 80 snaps on offense while being inactive for six of the Jets' first 14 games in coach's decisions.

Healthy scratch for Week 14
Corley (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Analysis: Despite playing a season-high 38 snaps on offense against the Seahawks in Week 13, the decision to have Corley inactive Sunday is in large part due to the Jets activating Allen Lazard off injured reserve Saturday. The Jets have opted for Xavier Gipson and Irvin Charles as their depth wide receivers behind Garrett Wilson, Davante Adams and Lazard. Corley's next opportunity to play will be Week 15 against the Jaguars on Sunday, Dec. 15.

Does little with decent snap share
Corley didn't catch either of his two targets and added an eight-yard run in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Corley played 41 snaps on offense (60 percent) to Xavier Gipson's 19, suggesting that the rookie third-round pick has become the Jets' preferred option in the slot for the stretch run. While the increased playing time is encouraging, Corley has yet to capitalize. He has just 42 career scrimmage yards, and Corley's most notable play to date was an 18-yard run on which he celebrated prematurely and threw the ball away just before crossing the goal line back in Week 9.

Good to go for Week 13
Corley (illness) does not have an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Analysis: Corley missed Wednesday's practice due to an illness, but he was a full participant in the last two sessions of the week and will be able to play Sunday. The rookie third-rounder will continue to serve as the Jets' No. 4 wide receiver behind Garrett Wilson, Davante Adams and Xavier Gipson.

Appears past illness
Corley (illness) was listed as a full practice participant Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Corley popped up on Wednesday's injury report due to an illness, but it appears the rookie third-round wide receiver is no longer under the weather. Corley has logged two catches (on three targets) for 12 yards over the Jets' last two regular-season games.

DNP with illness Wednesday
Corley (illness) did not practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: After fumbling what would have been his first career touchdown out of the back of the end zone in Week 9 against the Texans, Corley has seen his offensive involvement tick upward over the last two contests, securing his second and third career catches for a total of 12 yards on 28 offensive snaps as the fourth wideout behind Garrett Wilson, Davante Adams and Xavier Gipson. Irvin Charles would be next up for snaps if Corley can't play against Seattle.

Makes third NFL catch
Corley caught his only target for 10 yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Corley was on the field for 12 snaps while Xavier Gipson played 27, suggesting Gipson still has the edge over the rookie third-round draft pick for playing time in the slot. Neither depth option has produced much this season with Garrett Wilson, Davante Adams and Breece Hall accounting for the vast majority of the Jets' offense on a consistent basis. Corley has just three catches heading into the Week 12 bye.

Tosses ball away to negate TD
Corley rushed once for 18 yards and lost a fumble in Thursday's 21-13 win over the Texans.
Analysis: Corley's first NFL carry was memorable for a different reason than he would have liked, as he got into the open field and raced into the end zone but flipped the ball out of his hand as he was crossing the goal line, and a review revealed that the ball left his hand prior to crossing the goal line. It then rolled out of the back of the end zone for a touchback. The 2024 third-round draft pick has just one target in his NFL career, and while Corley showed some promising ability in the open field…read more

Active for Week 8
Corley is not among the Jets' inactives for their battle against New England on Sunday, Randy Lange of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Corley was a healthy scratch three straight games coming into Week 8, but he'll be available to play against the Patriots. The rookie's active status comes as veteran wideout Allen Lazard is inactive due to a chest injury. Corley has just one catch on one target for four yards in only two offensive snaps over the three regular-season games he's participated in thus far, so he's unlikely to see much action Sunday.

Inactive again Sunday
Corley (coach's decision) is inactive ahead of Sunday night's contest against the Steelers.
Analysis: Corley will be a healthy scratch for the third game in a row as he remains buried on the Jets' depth chart. With the addition of Davante Adams via trade from the Raiders, Corley appears unlikely to make much of an impact with New York in the near future.

Won't play Monday night
Corley (coach's decision) is inactive ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Bills.
Analysis: Corley had been active for the Jets' first four games of the season, but Monday's healthy scratch marks the second consecutive game that the rookie will be inactive. The Jets' wide-receiver corps for Week 6 will consist of Garrett Wilson, Allen Lazard, Mike Williams, Xavier Gipson and Irvin Charles.

Healthy inactive for Week 5
Corley (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Randy Lange of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: The rookie third-round pick out of Western Kentucky had been active for each of the Jets' first four games, but he played just three total snaps (two on offense, one on special teams) in Weeks 1 through 3, and he didn't see the field at all in the Week 4 loss to the Broncos. Corley will now find himself on the inactive list for the first time all season while the Jets have five wide receivers suit up ahead of him.

Makes first NFL catch
Corley caught his only target for four yards in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans.
Analysis: For a second consecutive week, Corley was on the field for only one snap, but he was targeted on that play this time, resulting in his first NFL catch. The rookie third-round draft pick isn't seeing the field enough to be an impact player at this stage of his career, and Corley's unlikely to see a significant increase in usage Thursday against the Patriots.

Quiet in preseason finale
Corley recorded one catch on three targets for five yards in Saturday's 10-6 preseason win over the Giants.
Analysis: Corley played for the entire first half and appeared regularly in 11 personnel. His play remained inconsistent, as he was called for a holding penalty on the team's first drive and also had a reception reversed for failing to complete the process of the catch. Given his status as a third-round pick, Corley's roster spot should be safe. However, his ability to contribute immediately offensively is far less clear.

Two catches against Panthers
Corley recorded two receptions (on two targets) for 10 yards in Saturday's 15-12 preseason win over the Panthers.
Analysis: The Jets sat all of their projected starters, leaving Corley to catch the team's first pass of the game from Andrew Peasley. Corley has had a solid exhibition season, tallying six catches for 37 yards while also working as one of the team's kick returners. Special teams could be the primary path for him to find the field at the start of the regular season, though Corley could challenge Xavier Gipson for snaps in the slot as the campaign progresses.

Four catches in NFL debut
Corley caught four of five targets for 27 yards in Saturday's 20-17 preseason win over the Commanders. He also had a 33-yard kickoff return and one punt return for no gain.
Analysis: Corley caught the only completion quarterback Tyrod Taylor had in his two drives to start the game, and the 2024 third-round pick stayed in for the remainder of the first half after Andrew Peasley checked in under center. The rookie wide receiver's route running needs refinement, but Corley's a handful to bring down with the ball in his hands, so the Jets tried to give him opportunities in space Saturday on both offense and special teams. Corley may not get a chance to work with starting…read more

Signs rookie contract
The Jets signed Corley to a four-year, $6.073 million rookie contract Friday that includes a $1.237 million signing bonus, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: New York selected Corley in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft, and he'll have a chance to compete for a key role among the team's receiver corps during his rookie campaign. Corley exited a practice during OTAs in late May due to a lower-body injury but should be a full-go for training camp.

Exits practice early
Corley left Wednesday's practice early with an undisclosed lower-body injury and returned without a helmet, Connor Hughes of SNY.tv reports.
Analysis: Hughes notes that Corley walked with a limp after the incident, giving another hint that the rookie won't return to practice Wednesday. The injury doesn't sound especially serious, as a player typically would stay inside rather than joining his teammates to watch the rest of practice if there were concern about a major health issue. With Mike Williams (knee) unavailable for offseason practices, the Jets seem to have a wide-open depth chart at receiver behind No. 1 option Garrett Wilson. Coming…read more
