Hamstring injury
Suspension cost Chris Herndon all of September. A hamstring injury cost him October. It’s now November and the young tight end has still yet to practice fully this season.
Herndon wasn’t ruled out of Sunday’s game against the Dolphins, listed as questionable after continuing to practice on a limited basis on Friday, but coach Adam Gase made it sound unlikely he will play.
“I don’t want to put him out there if he’s not feeling good,” Gase said. (New York Post)
Nerdy Football Analysis: It will likely be the Ryan Griffin show at tight end for the Jets this week against the lowly Dolphins. Griffin finished at the TE1 in Week 8 with a 4-66-2 line but has four games this season with 1 catch or less. He’s a TE2 in Week 9.
