  • Saves best game for last

    Herndon caught seven of nine targets for 63 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's season-ending 28-14 loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: Herndon absorbed an illegal helmet-to-helmet hit and still held onto the ball on his 21-yard touchdown catch late in the first half, and he ultimately set season highs in both catches and yards to finish his third campaign on a high note. The tight end struggled to get going for much of the year, but he posted three of his four highest yardage totals in the last three games and finished on a two-game touchdown streak. Though Herndon totaled just 31 catches for 287 yards and three touchdowns…read more

  • Scores second TD of 2020

    Herndon caught all four of his targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-16 win over Cleveland.

    Analysis: Herndon got wide open in the end zone for an 11-yard touchdown in the second quarter. The touchdown was only Herndon's second of the season, but the 2018 fourth-round pick is building some late-campaign momentum, as he set a season high in receiving yards with 48 last week. He'll look to close out his season on a high note next week in New England.

  • Three catches in win

    Herndon caught three of four targets for 48 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: Herndon set a new season high in receiving yards as the Jets picked up their first win of 2020 in a shocker over the heavily favored Rams. The tight end also caught at least three passes in a game for the first time since Week 3. It was nice to see Herndon actually make a meaningful contribution again, but he'll still be tough to trust over the final two games of the season given his frequent disappearing acts.

  • Underwhelming season continues

    Herndon caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 40-3 loss to Seattle.

    Analysis: Herndon made his first catch since Week 11 and just his 17th of the season. Any optimism regarding an increase in targets for the tight end with New York battling injuries to its receiving corps was quashed in this one. Herndon should continue to play the majority of snaps in Week 15 against the Rams, but he's unlikely to make much of an impact on the stat sheet.

  • Another catchless game

    Herndon wasn't targeted in Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Raiders.

    Analysis: Herndon has caught just three passes since Week 6. The third-year tight end showed promise as a rookie but was hampered by injuries as a sophomore and has regressed significantly in his third year. Herndon will hope to get back on track against the Seahawks in Week 14, but there's not much evidence suggesting he'll be able to do so.

  • No targets in Week 12

    Herndon wasn't targeted in Sunday's 20-3 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Herndon awakened from a season-long slumber to score his first touchdown of the season last week but returned to invisibility in this one. Perhaps he was bothered by the back tightness revealed earlier in the week, but regardless, Herndon will be tough to trust when the Jets host the Raiders in Week 13.

  • Back to full practice

    Herndon (back) practiced fully Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The tight end was limited Wednesday as he dealt with some tightness in his lower back, but his full participation Thursday puts him in line to play Sunday against the Dolphins. Herndon caught two of his three targets for 32 yards and a TD in this past Sunday's 34-28 loss to the Chargers, but overall his production has been modest this season, as he's logged a 16-133-1 stat line through 10 games to date.

  • Dealing with back tightness

    Herndon will be limited in Wednesdays practice due to a back injury, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

    Analysis: More specifically, head coach Gase said that Herndon is dealing with "tightness" in his lower back, adding that the Jets are "being cautious with it," per Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York. The third-year tight end scored for the first time all season in last week's loss to the Chargers, finishing the day with two receptions for 32 yards on three targets. Even if he manages to shake off the back injury prior to Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Herndon will still be difficult to trust for…read more

  • Scores first touchdown vs. Chargers

    Herndon caught two of three targets for 32 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 34-28 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: Herndon made a season-long 26-yard grab before adding a six-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter. The score was his first of the season and broke a drought that dated back to Week 16 of the 2018 campaign. Herndon hadn't topped 30 yards since the season opener and is far from a safe fantasy play next Sunday against the Dolphins, despite this encouraging effort.

  • Disappearing act continues

    Herndon wasn't targeted in Monday's 30-27 loss to New England.

    Analysis: Herndon played 30 offensive snaps, which was actually 65 percent on a night that saw the Patriots control the clock and the Jets employ a quick-strike approach. Despite getting consistent playing time, the tight end has been a net negative over the past four weeks, losing a fumble on his lone catch over that span.

  • Fumbles on lone catch

    Herndon caught one of two targets for three yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 35-9 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Herndon finally caught a ball for the first time in three weeks, but he put the ball on the ground at the end of the play. His nearly nonexistent role in the league's least proficient offense makes Herndon tough to trust in Week 9 against New England and beyond.

  • Lays another egg

    Herndon failed to catch his lone target in Sunday's 18-10 loss to Buffalo.

    Analysis: The Bills had struggled to defend tight ends all season, but Herndon could not capitalize on the favorable matchup. He failed to catch a ball for the second week in a row even as starting quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) returned from a two-game absence. Herndon has been arguably the biggest underperformer in New York's disappointing offense, and that's unlikely to change against the Chiefs in Week 8.

  • Blanked by Dolphins

    Herndon wasn't targeted in Sunday's 24-0 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Herndon's disappointing disappearing act continues. He played 63 percent of offensive snaps, which was his second-lowest mark of the season but a nice bounce back from the 42 percent Herndon played last week. Backup quarterback Joe Flacco just didn't look his way, leaving Herndon with only seven catches over the last five games.

  • Two catches in Week 5

    Herndon caught two of three targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 30-10 loss to Arizona.

    Analysis: Herndon finished second on the team in receiving yards, though that's more an indictment of the rest of the Jets' offense aside from Jamison Crowder (116 yards and a touchdown) than a compliment to Herndon. The 2018 fourth-rounder was viewed as a popular third-year sleeper coming off an injury-riddled sophomore season, but like most of New York's offense, Herndon's showing no signs of waking up. He has 13 catches for 98 yards heading into a Week 6 clash with the Chargers, and six of those grabs…read more

  • Struggles continue Week 4

    Herndon brought in one of three targets for 11 yards in the Jets' 37-28 loss to the Broncos on Thursday.

    Analysis: The athletic tight end once again came up considerably short for fantasy managers, extending what has been a disappointing start to the season to a fourth game. Herndon did have six receptions Week 1 against the Bills, but they went for just 37 yards, and he's now recorded a 5-37-0 line over the subsequent three games. For a player that averaged 12.9 yards per grab and four touchdowns on 39 catches during his rookie 2018 campaign before missing all but one game last year, the current numbers…read more

  • Quiet in latest blowout loss

    Herndon caught three of five targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 36-7 loss to the Colts.

    Analysis: Herndon isn't doing any damage downfield with just 63 yards on his 10 catches through three weeks. At least one aspect of the Jets has looked absolutely horrid every week, and it was the passing game's turn in this one as quarterback Sam Darnold threw for just 168 yards and tossed three interceptions, two of which were returned for touchdowns. While game script should be playing in Herndon's favor with the Jets getting blown out every week, his lack of downfield involvement limits the tight…read more

  • Posts dud in Week 2

    Herndon caught one of four targets for five yards in Sunday's 31-13 loss to San Francisco.

    Analysis: Among the multitude of questions about coach Adam Gase's dubious game plan Sunday was Herndon's lack of involvement, especially with the Jets now down their top four wide receivers after Breshad Perriman (ankle) and Chris Hogan (ribs) were forced to join Jamison Crowder (hamstring) and Denzel Mims (hamstring) on the sidelines. The 24-year-old tight end should play a larger role in Week 3 against the Colts given the lack of healthy pass catchers left in the Jets offense.

  • Six catches, fumble in Week 1 loss

    Herndon caught six of seven targets for 37 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 27-17 loss to Buffalo.

    Analysis: Herndon caught a bad break on his fumble, as the play appeared to be an incomplete pass but stood as a fumble after a lengthy review. The tight end mostly operated underneath with quarterback Sam Darnold struggling to push the ball downfield effectively, and Herndon finished second on the team behind Jamison Crowder in targets, catches and receiving yards. He'll look to stay involved when the 49ers come to town in Week 2.

    Herndon (chest) returned to team drills Thursday morning, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Herndon was removed from Tuesday's practice with chest tightness and limited to individual drills Wednesday. The quick return to practice suggests he should be fine for Week 1 at Buffalo, likely serving as one of Sam Darnold's top receiving options.

    Herndon (chest) took the field for Wednesday's practice but didn't participate in team drills, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Even if he isn't a full participant, Herndon's on the field presence suggests the chest tightness he dealt with Tuesday isn't serious. Given the Jets' issues at wide receiver, Herndon could be busy in the passing game Week 1 at Buffalo.

    Herndon was removed from Tuesday's practice due to tightness in a chest muscle, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

    Analysis: Herndon initially played through the issue but eventually left for the locker room with a member of the training staff. The Jets are running low on healthy bodies to catch passes, with wide receivers Jamison Crowder, Chris Hogan and Braxton Berrios also bothered by muscle tightness after Tuesday's practice. The team already has Vyncint Smith (core muscle) facing a prolonged absence, while both Denzel Mims (hamstring) and Breshad Perriman (knee) have been absent from practice for at least a…read more

  • Exits with apparent injury

    Herndon left Tuesday's practice early, walking off the field with a trainer, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

    Analysis: Herndon initially continued to participate after he was banged up at the beginning of Tuesday's practice, but he later came off the field and left for the locker room. He's expected to have a big role in the passing game Week 1 against Buffalo, as the Jets have struggled to keep any of their wide receivers besides Jamison Crowder healthy. Any absence for Herndon would leave Ryan Griffin as the top tight end.

  • Likely regaining starting job

    Herndon is projected to serve as the Jets' starting tight end, Sheil Kapadia of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Injuries and a suspension limited Herndon to one game and 18 snaps last year, while Ryan Griffin put up a 34-320-5 receiving line and signed a three-year extension before suffering a season-ending ankle injury. The two players may end up battling for playing time, but Herndon's youth and athleticism should give him the advantage if he doesn't fall flat on his face during training camp. The 24-year-old put up 502 yards as a rookie in 2018, despite averaging only 39.1 snaps per game. A three-down…read more

  • Might be looking at timeshare

    Teammate Ryan Griffin (ankle) said that he's excited to team up with Herndon (ribs) in 2020, Ethan Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

    Analysis: Between a suspension, a hamstring injury and a season-ending rib injury, Herndon was limited to one game and 18 snaps in his second NFL season. Meanwhile, Griffin caught 34 passes for 320 yards and a career-high five touchdowns, starting at tight end in all 13 of his appearances before an ankle injury held him out for the final three weeks. Griffin was expecting a six-month recovery process after December surgery, which likely means Herndon will be healthy before his teammate. With Griffin…read more

    Herndon (ribs) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Ethan Greenburg of the Jets' official site reports.

    Analysis: Herndon opened his second pro campaign with a four-game suspension and promptly suffered a hamstring injury upon his return to the team, sidelining him for another four contests. He finally made his season debut this past Sunday against the Giants, only to suffer a broken rib. Moving forward, the Jets will rely on Ryan Griffin, Trevon Wesco and Daniel Brown to man tight end.

    Herndon suffered a broken rib during Sunday's 34-37 win over the Giants and will miss multiple weeks, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Herndon's season debut was delayed to Week 10 due to a four-game suspension and an ensuing Grade 1 hamstring strain. After managing just 28 percent of the offensive snaps and catching one of two targets for seven yards in Sunday's barn burner, he's now picked up yet another serious injury. Look for Ryan Griffin to continue to be the most utilized Jets tight end.

    Analysis: A suspension and hamstring injury combined to wipe away the first half of Herndon's season, but the second-year tight end is finally back in the fold. Expect better things from Herndon moving forward, as he flashed potential with 502 yards and four touchdowns as a rookie.

    Herndon (hamstring) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Analysis: We'd like to see the tight end register a full and productive game before endorsing him as a reliable lineup option, but once Herndon re-establishes his role in the Jets' passing attack, he has a solid chance to re-emerge as a fantasy factor in the coming weeks.

    Herndon (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants after practicing in a limited fashion all week, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: That said, Cimini adds that the tight end -- who was in uniform in Week 9 but did not see the field -- is expected to make his debut in the Jets offense this Sunday. "It looks good," coach Adam Gase said Friday. Once Herndon re-establishes his role in the Jets passing attack, the tight end could re-emerge as a fantasy factor in the coming weeks, but he's a speculative lineup option in Week 10.

    Herndon (hamstring) will be limited at practice Friday, but head coach Adam Gase said "it looks good" when asked about Herndon's chances of playing Sunday, Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports.

    Analysis: Herndon was active for last week's game and ultimately did not take the field, but it appears he has a chance to see his first action of the season Sunday against the Giants. After last week's goose egg, though, fantasy players will probably want to look for something definitive before including him in Week 10 lineups.

    Herndon (hamstring) remained limited at practice Thursday.

    Analysis: We'll circle back on Herndon's status Friday, but the 2018 fourth-rounder appears to have a solid chance to make his season debut Sunday against the Giants.

If Gase's prediction comes to pass, Herndon will have a good chance to receive his first playing time of the season Sunday against the Giants.

    Herndon (hamstring) didn't get into Sunday's 26-18 loss to Miami.

    Analysis: Herndon was active but didn't get involved in the offense, with Ryan Griffin continuing to shoulder the workload at tight end. It's apparent that Herndon's hamstring still isn't healthy, but perhaps it will heal up by the time the Jets face the Giants in the battle for New York in Week 10.

    Analysis: Herndon will suit up for the first time this season, but it's unclear if he's actually recovered from the hamstring injury. All seven of the Jets' inactive players are dealing with injuries that are apparently more concerning than Herndon's, so the tight end's active status doesn't necessarily mean he will play, per Brian Costello of the New York Post.

  • Could miss another game

    Coach Adam Gase didn't express much optimism Friday about Herndon's (hamstring) chances of making his season debut Sunday against the Dolphins, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

    Analysis: Herndon will practice on a limited basis for the third day in a row, but he did the same last week and was ultimately ruled out. Since he didn't take a step forward in his practice activity, it sounds like the Jets aren't inclined to bring him back in Week 9. The Jets' final injury report will reveal whether Herndon carries a designation into the weekend.
