Jets | C.J. Uzomah suffers leg injury Friday Fri Jun 9, 01:43 PM
New York Jets TE C.J. Uzomah (leg) injured his right leg while running a route during practice Friday, June 9. He was noticeably limping but was able to walk off the field under his own power.
| Footballguys view: Tyler Conklin was an underrated fantasy tight end last year. With better quarterback play in the form of Aaron Rodgers, he could be a legit top 10 option if Uzomah's injury is serious. 2022 third-round pick Jeremy Ruckert could get more work with the first team while Uzomah is out. |

Jets | C.J. Uzomah staying put? Sun Feb 12, 05:15 PM
New York Jets TE C.J. Uzomah will be 'hard to cut' this offseason because of his contract structure, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: The Jets are looking to upgrade their offense this offseason, and that could include a trade for QB Aaron Rodgers. Uzomah has talent, but he's overpriced as the Jets' no.2 tight end behind Tyler Conklin. There's $11 million in dead money remaining on his contract, and that's why Cimini calls Uzomah a 'hard cut' this offseason. |

Jets | C.J. Uzomah might play in Week 3 Tue Sep 20, 01:47 AM
New York Jets TE C.J. Uzomah (hamstring) might be a game-time decision in Week 3, head coach Robert Saleh said Monday, Sept. 19.
| Footballguys view: Uzomah missed Week 2 after getting a bit of time in Week 1. Tyler Conklin gets most of the work at the tight end position for the Jets. He's a security blanket for QB Joe Flacco, and that won't change much with Uzomah back in action (if he does play) in Week 3. |

| Footballguys view: Great news for the Jets, as Becton is their most important offensive lineman, Lawson their best edge rusher, and Uzomah projected to be a close to full-time player, based on the three year, $24 million deal he got from the team this offseason. |

| Footballguys view: This list includes the team's starting right and left tackles, 1/1A tight end, and best edge rusher. Becton is the most important player on the list, as there were rumors that their franchise left tackle wouldn't even be on the team this year. Lawson is a big bounceback candidate in IDP leagues after tearing his achilles before the 2021 season. |

Free-agent TE C.J. Uzomah (Bengals) officially signed with the New York Jets Thursday, March 17. Terms of the contract were not disclosed but an earlier report indicated that it is a three-year contract worth $24 million.
| Footballguys view: Uzomah changes teams for a big-money deal and a fresh start in New York. He's a seam-ripper when healthy who can be a menace in the red zone. We'll see if (and how quickly) Uzomah becomes a favorite target of second-year quarterback Zach Wilson. |

Bengals | C.J. Uzomah may be priority for CIN Fri Mar 11, 07:25 PM
Cincinnati Bengals impending free-agent TE C.J. Uzomah likely will be a priority for the Bengals this offseason, in the option of Bengals.com's Geoff Hobson.
| Footballguys view: Uzomah toughed it out in the playoffs and played in the Super Bowl with a knee injury. He's a key piece for the offense, and with 49 catches for 493 yards and five touchdowns Uzomah finished the 2021 season as the no.17 fantasy tight end in standard-scoring leagues. An Achilles' injury that shortened his 2020 season may negatively impact his market at age 29. |
