C.J. UZOMAH NEWS

One catch in return Uzomah (hamstring) caught his only target for five yards in Sunday's 27-12 loss to the Bengals.

Impact Uzomah returned from a one-game absence but was the clear No. 2 option at tight end behind Tyler Conklin, who caught all eight of his targets for a team-high 84 yards. As long Conklin's healthy, Uzomah's role figures to remain minimal.

Ready for Sunday Uzomah (hamstring) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.

Impact Uzomah was listed as questionable despite putting in a full practice Friday, so it's not a surprise he's been cleared to suit up Sunday. The 29-year-old sat out with the injury Week 2 but is back in action to face his former team this weekend.

Questionable after full practice Uzomah (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Uzomah logged a full practice Friday after a pair of limited sessions, putting him in a good position to return against his former team and limit his absence to just one game. Cimini adds that all the Jets listed as questionable for Week 3 are expected to play, further bolstering Uzomah's outlook.

Full participant Friday Uzomah (hamstring) fully participated in Friday's practice session, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

Impact Uzomah was limited at practice over the last two days due to a hamstring injury, but his full participation Friday is certainly encouraging ahead of Sunday's Week 3 matchup against the Bengals. While coach Robert Saleh said Monday that Uzomah would be a game-time decision this week, it seems likely that the tight end will be available against his former team.

Limited at practice Wednesday Uzomah (hamstring) was limited at practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Uzomah didn't play in Week 2 and was deemed a game-time decision for Week 3 by coach Robert Saleh on Monday. However, the Jets probably won't have a good sense of what direction the tight end is trending in until seeing how he progresses throughout practice this week. If Uzomah is eventually ruled out for the contest against his former team, Tyler Conklin, who caught six of nine targets for 40 yards during Sunday's win over the Browns, would serve as the team's top tight end again.

Iffy for Week 3 Jets head coach Robert Saleh suggested that Uzomah (hamstring) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's contest against the Bengals, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The Jets probably won't have a good sense of what direction Uzomah is trending in for the game until evaluating him in practices Wednesday through Friday, but Saleh appears to be proceeding with the belief that the tight end will take an injury designation into the weekend. Uzomah had been listed as doubtful prior to the Jets' eventual Week 2 win over the Browns before landing on the inactive list. With Uzomah out of the picture, Tyler Conklin served as the Jets' clear top tight end, playing every snap on offense and finishing with six receptions for 40 yards on nine targets.

Jets Inactives vs. Browns: C.J. Uzomah and a Surprise Jets tight end C.J. Uzomah will sit with a hamstring injury against the Browns while New York has multiple healthy scratches this week

SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • KANSASCITY.COM

Inactive against Cleveland Uzomah (hamstring) is inactive Week 2 against the Browns.

Impact Uzomah entered the week with a "doubtful" tag after sitting out Friday's practice session entirely, and it was reported earlier Sunday that he wasn't on track to play. That idea was confirmed with the official inactives report, leaving Tyler Conklin to start at tight end, with Jeremy Ruckert and Kenny Yeboah on hand to work in a reserve capacity.

Not on track to play Sunday Uzomah (hamstring), who is officially listed as doubtful for Sunday's game in Cleveland, isn't in line to play, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Fantasy managers likely weren't counting on Uzomah playing this weekend after he was tagged as "doubtful" following Friday's practice, but Pelissero's report confirms the tight end hasn't progressed enough in the last 48 hours to have a realistic shot at suiting up Sunday. Expect Uzomah to be included on the Jets' inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff, leaving Tyler Conklin in line to serve as the team's clear top tight end.

Doubtful for Week 2 Uzomah (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Browns, Rich Cimini of ESPN reports.

Impact Uzomah's condition seems to have deteriorated throughout the week, as he was unable to practice Friday after posting a limited session Thursday and practicing fully Wednesday. In Uzomah's absence, Lawrence Cager and rookie Jeremy Ruckert should see increased opportunities at tight end behind Tyler Conklin.

To be game-time call Coach Robert Saleh said Friday that Uzomah (hamstring) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's contest against the Browns, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Impact Uzomah is coming a full practice Wednesday and a limited session Thursday, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him be listed as 'questionable' on Friday's injury report. Tyler Conklin operated as the Jets' top tight end during the team's season-opening loss to Baltimore, while Uzomah was not targeted.

Logs limited practice Uzomah (hamstring) was limited at practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Uzomah practiced fully Wednesday, so it's possible that he was injured during Thursday's session. Friday's injury report will reveal what level of concern there is for the tight end's availability for Sunday's game against the Browns. That said, it appears as though Uzomah -- who logged zero targets on 23 snaps in Week 1 -- currently is behind fellow TE Tyler Conklin (77 snaps, seven targets) in terms of fantasy lineup utility.
