Joins Miami on reserve deal Kuntz signed a reserve/future contract with the Dolphins on Friday.
Impact Kuntz has appeared in two regular-season games since being drafted by the Jets in the seventh round of the 2023 NFL Draft. He impressed at the NFL Scouting Combine prior to being drafted but hasn't converted that athleticism into a meaningful role in the NFL. Joining the underwhelming Dolphins tight end room could provide an opportunity for Kuntz to impress in a different organization.

Impact The 25-year-old joined the Jets' practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster in late August.

He's expected to compete for a depth spot in the Jets' tight-end room throughout the offseason.

Reverts to practice squad Kuntz reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact Kuntz made his 2024 regular-season debut Sunday against the Jaguars and served as the Jets' No. 3 tight end behind Jeremy Ruckert and Kenny Yeboah due to Tyler Conklin (personal) being sidelined. Kuntz ended up playing seven snaps (one on offense, six on special teams) and did not show up on the box score. Kuntz could be elevated for a second straight game if Conklin doesn't play in the Jets' Week 16 clash against the Rams on Sunday, Dec. 22.

Could play Week 15 Kuntz was elevated from the Jets' practice squad Saturday in advance of Sunday's tilt against the Jaguars, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Tyler Conklin is dealing with a personal matter and didn't travel with the team Saturday, though there's still a chance he could play Sunday. Kuntz's elevation appears to have been made with the intention of providing insurance at tight end in case Conklin can't suit up. This elevation is Kuntz's first of the campaign.

Kuntz appeared in one game for the Jets during his rookie campaign, recording no stats while playing just six total snaps (two offensive and four on special teams).
