Jeremy Ruckert Fantasy

New York Jets rookie tight end Jeremy Ruckert (foot) has been dealing with a foot injury and will be re-evaluated this week, but head coach Robert Saleh said the team is "hoping" he'll be able to get in some work this spring during organized team activities. The Jets brought in both C.J. Uzomah and Tyler Conklin at the position in free agency this offseason, so Ruckert figures to serve as valuable depth at tight end in his rookie season in New York. If he's forced to miss workouts this spring, that would cause him to miss valuable developmental time before training camp as well. Ruckert won't be a rookie tight end to target in redraft fantasy leagues in 2022.

Ohio State tight end Jeremy Ruckert was selected by the Jets with the 101st overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. New York secured another tight end on Friday night after recently adding C.J. Uzomah and Tyler Conklin to the roster via free agency. Ruckert wasn't the most consistent receiving option throughout his time as a Buckeye. Yet, the-21-year-old was an effective pass-catcher when needed, especially inside the red zone. Nonetheless, competition for targets and uncertainty surrounding his role won't do him any favors on the fantasy end of things during his rookie season. As a result, Ruckert isn't anticipated to garner much interest from managers during drafts heading toward September. However, there's a chance he could get some attention as a streaming option during the year.
