Mason Taylor - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Still not practicing Taylor (neck) didn't practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Taylor has missed two straight games, and a 'DNP' on Wednesday isn't a good sign as Sunday's contest against New England approaches. If he remains sidelined this weekend, Jeremy Ruckert, Stone Smartt and Jelani Woods would handle the Jets' Week 17 TE duties, as they did in the team's Week 16 loss to New Orleans, a game which Smartt was the busiest of the trio, catching all five of his targets for 34 yards.

Missing second straight game Taylor (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Impact Taylor will miss a second consecutive game, and he hasn't practiced during his absence. Newly extended Jeremy Ruckert will top the Jets' tight end depth chart in Sunday's battle between cellar-dwellers. Taylor's next chance to play will be Week 17 against the Patriots.

Fifth straight practice absence Taylor (neck) remained a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Taylor missed a fifth consecutive practice Thursday due to a neck injury, which kept him out of the Jets' Week 15 loss to Jacksonville. Barring a surprisingly abrupt recovery from Taylor, Jeremy Ruckert is set to continue filling in as the Jets' primary tight end Sunday against the Saints, with the latter fresh off signing a two-year extension.

Listed as DNP Taylor (neck) is listed as a non-participant for Wednesday's walk-through practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Taylor didn't participate last week and apparently wouldn't have practiced Wednesday if the Jets had held a normal session. It's not looking great for Sunday's game at New Orleans, potentially giving Jeremy Ruckert another chance to fill in as the starting tight end.

Ruled out for Week 15 Jets head coach Aaron Glenn ruled Taylor (neck) out for Sunday's game in Jacksonville.

Impact Taylor was unable to practice in any fashion this week and will now miss his first game of the season as he tends to the neck injury. The timing of the absence is a tough break for Taylor, who had recorded five catches for 51 yards -- his most since Week 5 -- on eight targets in this past Sunday's loss to the Dolphins. With Taylor sidelined this weekend, the Jets will likely turn to Jeremy Ruckert as their starting tight end.

Another DNP on Thursday Taylor (neck) remained a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Taylor has missed the first two practices of Week 15 prep. He'll likely need to practice in some capacity Friday to have a chance to play Sunday at Jacksonville. Jeremy Ruckert would likely take on a larger role if Taylor sits out Sunday, with Stone Smartt (concussion) and Jelani Woods also possibly seeing more action.

DNP due to neck injury Wednesday Taylor (neck) didn't practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact This is a new injury for Taylor, who was the Jets' leading receiver with five catches for 51 yards in this past Sunday's loss to the Dolphins. The rookie second-round pick will have two more chances to increase his participation level ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Leading receiver in Week 14 loss Taylor caught five of eight targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins.

Impact Taylor led the Jets in catches and receiving yards while tying John Metchie for the team lead in targets. Rookie quarterback Brady Cook showed a nice connection with Taylor after replacing the injured Tyrod Taylor (groin) in the first half, so the rookie tight end's fantasy outlook is unlikely to be significantly impacted regardless of whether Cook, Tyrod or Justin Fields (knee) starts at quarterback in Week 15 against a Jaguars defense that has struggled to defend tight ends.

Two catches in win Taylor caught two of four targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Falcons.

Impact Taylor finished second on the team in receiving yards, though he was nowhere close to leading receiver Adonai Mitchell, who caught eight of 12 targets for 102 yards and a touchdown. The Jets don't generate much offense through the air, but Taylor reliably gets a few opportunities per game, as this was only the second time in the last six outings that the rookie second-round pick has been held short of three receptions. Up next for Taylor and the Jets is a Week 14 home game against the Dolphins.

Three catches with Tyrod at QB Taylor caught three of five targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the Ravens.

Impact Taylor didn't see a significant change in production as the Jets benched Justin Fields in favor of Tyrod Taylor (no relation to Mason) at quarterback. Tyrod will likely remain the starter against the Falcons in Week 13. The Jets' rookie tight end has recorded at least three catches in four of the past five games, and that stretch includes Taylor's lone touchdown catch.
