First NFL TD among 23 catches Ruckert caught 23 of 29 targets for 179 yards and one touchdown while playing in all 17 games in 2025.

Impact Ruckert set career highs in catches, receiving yards and targets in his fourth NFL season, and the 2022 third-round draft pick scored his first NFL touchdown in Week 2 against the Bills. After signing a two-year, $10 million contract extension with his hometown team in December, the Lindenhurst, NY native is poised to retain the second spot on the Jets' tight end depth chart behind 2025 second-round pick Mason Taylor (neck) in 2026.

Heading into the regular-season finale against the Bills, Ruckert has exceeded two catches only twice this season.

Ruckert has played a reserve role for most of his NFL career, catching 55 of 75 targets for 427 receiving yards and one touchdowns across 55 games.

Catches two passes vs. Jacksonville Ruckert caught both of his targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 48-20 loss to the Jaguars.

Impact The Ohio State product recorded the fifth-most receiving yards on the Jets while filling in for the injured Mason Taylor (neck) during Sunday's loss. Ruckert has now caught 20 of 23 targets for 163 yards and one touchdown across 14 appearances this season. He's expected to return to a reserve role if Taylor is active for the Week 16 matchup against the Saints.

Prepared for increased role Ruckert is set to have a bigger role in Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact In the absence of Mason Taylor (neck), Ruckert is set to take on a bigger role, likely in both the pass and run game. The tight end will likely be utilized as an additional blocker to protect Brady Cook and to open up holes for Breece Hall, but his ability in the receiving game cannot be understated. Ruckert has 18 receptions for 150 yards and one touchdown on 21 targets this season as the backup to Mason Taylor. Being thrust into the No. 1 tight end role means the 2022 third-rounder could see a further increased target share in Sunday's contest as well.

Impact Ruckert has registered multiple catches in consecutive games for the first time this season. He remains a distant second on the depth chart behind Mason Taylor, and Ruckert has yet to exceed 28 yards in a game in 2025.
