Jordan Akins News
Former Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins signed an undisclosed one-year deal with the New York Giants on Thursday, according to a league source. The Giants were looking for more tight end help after both Evan Engram and Kyle Rudolph left this offseason. Ricky Seals-Jones is expected to be the team's primary pass-catching tight end, but Akins should also see some playing time. The 30-year-old had 24 receptions on 33 targets for 214 yards and no touchdowns in 13 games (three starts) for the Texans last season. Akins has totaled 114 catches for 1,260 yards and three touchdowns on 162 targets in 58 games (23 starts) in his four NFL seasons. He won't be on the fantasy radar unless Seals-Jones misses time with an injury.
Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins is a healthy scratch in Week 12 against the New York Jets for the second straight week. It appears the 29-year-old has been passed on the depth chart by rookie Brevin Jordan with Pharaoh Brown back to full health. The Texans also have Antony Auclair at the position. Akins was already an afterthought in fantasy, as are the rest of Houston's tight ends for that matter, and has caught just 21 passes for 184 yards and no touchdowns on 28 targets in his nine games played (three starts) this season. The Texans offense could actually make some noise against the Jets this weekend, but it's hard to recommend any Houston tight end in fantasy given their lack of explosive plays on offense in 2021.
Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins is a healthy scratch in Week 11 against the Tennessee Titans and will not play on Sunday. Akins hasn't done enough to warrant fantasy consideration in standard-sized leagues this year, but he does lead the team's tight ends with 21 receptions on 28 targets for 184 yards through nine games in 2021. But with Pharaoh Brown back healthy this Sunday, Akins will be the odd man out. Antony Auclair and Brevin Jordan will likely work behind Brown against the Titans, but Houston's tight end situation is one to avoid in fantasy. Brown is second on the team with 18 TE targets, but he's caught only 12 passes for 114 yards in seven games this year.
