C.J. Uzomah News
New York Jets quarterback Mike White (ribs) and tight end C.J. Uzomah (ankle) have both officially been ruled out for the Week 18 regular season finale against the Miami Dolphins. White is dealing with five fractured ribs after getting beat up again in the Week 17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, so he'll finish the year on the bench. Veteran Joe Flacco will get the start, with Zach Wilson backing him up. In a meaningless game for Gang Green, Flacco will be a low-end QB2 for fantasy managers. Uzomah did very little in his first year in New York, catching 21 passes for 232 yards and two touchdowns while working behind Tyler Conklin all year.
New York Jets tight end C.J. Uzomah had an excellent fantasy performance in Week 15 but is very unlikely to repeat it in a Week 16 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Uzomah scored two touchdowns in Week 15, but it was on his only two targets. Some fantasy managers may see the two touchdown performance and think of Uzomah as a sudden TE1, but he's more likely to end the week with a zero than with another touchdown. He can be left on benches and waiver wires in most leagues.
New York Jets tight end C.J. Uzomah scored two touchdowns in a Week 15 loss to the Detroit Lions. He was only targeted those two times, but certainly made the most of it, catching the two passes for a total of 41 yards. One of his touchdowns was a one yarder and the other a 40 yarder, so they couldn't have been more different. Jets tight ends only saw four targets total in this game, so chasing points with Uzomah in Week 16 likely isn't the best idea. The Jets will be facing the Jaguars on Thursday night.

Uzomah is coming off the best year of his NFL career and parlayed it into a multimillion-dollar deal with the spend-happy New York Jets. Always regarded as a block-first tight end who was an unsung hero in Cincinnati's rushing attack, Uzomah's 49 receptions, 493 receiving yards, and five touchdowns were all career-highs in 2021 as he found a niche in Cincinnati's offense despite his blocking responsibilities and the team's loaded receiving corps.
