Jets' Mason Taylor: Headed for big Week 1 role?
Taylor could see more opportunities this summer after teammate Kenyon Sadiq (sports hernia) suffered a setback in his return from May surgery, ESPN.com's Rich Cimini reports.
Fantasy interest in Taylor took a cliff dive after the Jets drafted Sadiq in the first round this spring. While the rookie's presence is still a huge issue for Taylor's long-term outlook, it won't be at all surprising if the 2025 second-round pick is a Week 1 starter with a workload of 40-plus snaps. If nothing else, Taylor retains some appeal as a dynasty bench stash and an endgame pick for best ball. Streaming value for redraft is also possible, especially if Sadiq isn't ready for Week 1 or otherwise doesn't have much of a role early in the season. Jets coach Aaron Glenn did say Tuesday that he still hopes for Sadiq to be ready by Week 1.

Jets' Mason Taylor: Jets bolster TE room in Round 1
Taylor will face increased competition for targets and playing time at tight end, as Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports that the Jets drafted Kenyon Sadiq 16th overall Thursday.
Sadiq has more upside as a pass catcher than Taylor, as the rookie first-round pick had 51 catches for 560 yards and eight touchdowns at Oregon in 2025 and set a position record with a 4.39-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine. That being said, Cimini believes Taylor will still get plenty of playing time, with the Jets likely to use a lot of formations featuring multiple tight ends. Taylor caught 44 of 65 targets for 369 yards and one touchdown as a rookie after being selected in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft.

Jets' Mason Taylor: Coach anticipates Year 2 leap
Jets head coach Aaron Glenn named Taylor (neck) when asked Monday which players he anticipates taking a step forward in 2026, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Taylor missed the final four games of last season due to a neck injury, but there have been no indications that he will be hampered in OTAs. Across 13 regular-season appearances during his rookie campaign, Taylor secured 44 of 65 targets for 369 yards and one touchdown, solid totals considering the struggles of New York's aerial attack, which averaged a league-worst 140.3 passing yards per game. The arrival of Geno Smith should provide stability on that front, and Taylor is currently positioned as one of the new QB's top targets along with Breece Hall (knee), Garrett Wilson (knee) and Adonai Mitchell.

Jets' Mason Taylor: Placed on injured reserve
The Jets placed Taylor (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.
Taylor was already ruled out for Week 18 against the Bills, but the move corresponds with other moves the Jets made ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale. The rookie second-rounder ended up missing the final four games of the regular season due to a neck injury, but he should be healthy for the start of the 2026 campaign. Taylor will finish his first NFL season with 44 catches (on 65 targets) for 369 yards and one touchdown across 13 games.

Jets' Mason Taylor: Won't play in Week 18
Coach Aaron Glenn said Friday that Taylor (neck) won't play in the Jets' season finale against the Bills.
The same applies to Jelani Woods (hamstring), which leaves Jeremy Ruckert and Stone Smartt as the 3-13 Jets' top available tight ends this weekend. Taylor, who last played Week 14, thus finishes his rookie campaign with 44 catches for 369 yards and a TD (on 65 targets) in 13 regular-season contests. Looking ahead, the 2025 second-rounder should maintain his key role in New York's offense next season, but look for plenty of personnel changes this offseason in terms of the team's skill positions.

Jets' Mason Taylor: Still not practicing
Taylor (neck) did not practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Taylor appears an unlikely candidate to retake the field in time for New York's season finale against the Bills. The rookie tight end hasn't played since Week 14, and he's now missed back-to-back practices in advance of Sunday's road divisional matchup. If Taylor can't play this weekend, he will wrap his rookie campaign with 44 catches for 369 yards and one score across 13 regular-season appearances.

Jets' Mason Taylor: Won't practice Wednesday
Taylor (neck) will not practice Wednesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Taylor hasn't played since Week 14. If the rookie tight end is unable to play in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Bills, the Jets will once again roll with Jeremy Ruckert, Stone Smartt and Jelani Woods at tight end.
