KENNY YEBOAH NEWS

Won't play Sunday Yeboah (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Yeboah is now slated to miss a second consecutive contest as a result of a calf issue. The 24-year-old has logged just 11 offensive snaps across four games played to this point in the season, so his absence likely won't alter New York's game plan to a large extent. Tyler Conklin and C.J. Uzomah are in line to handle most of the team's tight end reps in this weekend's matchup against Chicago, while Jeremy Ruckert could potentially be in the mix for some rotational snaps.

Inactive, as expected Yeboah (calf) is inactive Week 11 against the Patriots.

Impact Yeboah has largely been a practice squad player for the Jets this season, and when active, has seen most of his work on special teams. That won't be the case this Sunday following a late addition to the injury report, which leaves Tyler Conklin and C.J. Uzomah as the primary tight ends for New York. Jeremy Ruckert is also on hand, and rookie is a prime candidate to see some of Yeboah's special teams snaps.

Doubtful to play Week 11 Yeboah (calf) is considered doubtful for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Yeboah was a late add to the Jets' injury report after failing to practice for the first time this week due to a calf injury, though the exact nature and severity of the issue are still unclear. The 24-year-old was added to the active roster Nov. 5 and, after playing five offensive snaps against the Bills in Week 9, was expected to serve as the Jets' third-string tight end Week 11, per Cimini. With Yeboah now likely to sit out, expect rookie Jeremy Ruckert to slot in behind Tyler Conklin and C.J. Uzomah against New England.

Veteran guard Laurent Duvernay-Tardif has signed with the Jets’ practice squad

NOVEMBER 18, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Added to active roster Yeboah was signed to the Jets' active roster Saturday.

Impact Yeboah has spent the majority of the season on the practice squad but had been elevated for three previous games. He'll now join the active roster and is likely to contribute primarily on special teams.

NOVEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Back to practice squad Yeboah reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Yeboah chipped in with 21 snaps on special teams and two on offense, but he failed to record any stats. This was Yeboah's third time being elevated from the practice squad, so he'll need to be signed to the active roster if he's going to suit up for the Jets again the season.

Summoned from practice squad again The Jets elevated Yeboah from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's contest in Denver, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Impact This is the third time Yeboah has been elevated this season -- he also was brought up in Week 2 and Week 6. The second-year tight end has played just six offensive snaps and has yet to receive a target, but he's also been in on 49 special-teams snaps.

Jets Elevate TE Kenny Yeboah Yeboah Will Revert to Practice Squad After Sunday's Game vs. Broncos

OCTOBER 22, 2022 • NEWYORKJETS.COM

Hits practice squad again Yeboah reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Yeboah was promoted to the Jets' active roster for the second game this season during Sunday's win over the Packers. However, the second-year tight end was not targeted while seeing 26 of 30 snaps on special teams. Yeboah will now be eligible for one more elevation from New York's practice squad this season.

Suiting up at Green Bay The Jets elevated Yeboah from the practice squad to their active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game at the Packers.

Impact It will be the second game this season Yeboah is active for the Jets. After Week 6, he will only be eligible for one more elevation from the practice squad before he would have to be signed to the team's 53-man roster in order to play.

OCTOBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to practice squad Yeboah reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Yeboah earned the opportunity to suit up in Sunday's win over the Browns with C.J. Uzomah (hamstring) inactive. Although he only saw two snaps on offense, he did contribute regularly on special teams, earning an assisted tackle while on punt coverage. Depending on Uzomah's status for Week 3, Yeboah could earn another opportunity Sunday against the Bengals.

Heads to active roster The Jets elevated Yeboah from the practice squad to their active roster Saturday for Sunday's game against the Browns.

Impact Yeboah didn't make the initial 53-man roster but inked a practice-squad deal at the beginning of September. He'll get his first look on the active roster, but it's unclear what his role will be. C.J. Uzomah (hamstring) is unlikely to play and Jeremy Ruckert was a healthy scratch for Week 1, but Tyler Conklin and Lawrence Cager are still expected to garner the majority of the tight-end snaps.

Two catches in rookie season Yeboah caught two of three targets for 36 yards as a rookie in 2021.

Impact The undrafted free agent out of Ole Miss spent most of the season on the Jets' practice squad but got some playing time down the stretch after injuries ravaged New York's tight end depth chart. Both of his catches came in Week 17. Yeboah will look to secure a spot on the 53-man roster in camp next season, but his chances of doing so will hinge on what the Jets do to address the tight end position in the offseason in addition to his own improvement.

Two catches as team's top TE Yeboah caught both of his targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 28-24 loss to Tampa Bay.

Impact Yeboah came off the reserve/COVID-19 list earlier in the week and immediately jumped to the top of the Jets' tight end depth chart with Tyler Kroft entering COVID protocol himself. The undrafted rookie out of Ole Miss registered his first two catches here in what was his eighth NFL game, but this was just the second time Yeboah actually got to play snaps on offense.

Clears COVID protocols Yeboah (illness) activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Ethan Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

Impact Yeboah was signed to the active roster before Week 10 and has mostly appeared on special teams. However, with Tyler Kroft on the reserve/COVID-19 list and Ryan Griffin (knee) Trevon Wesco (knee) on injured reserve, Yeboah could be returning at an opportune time. If Kroft doesn't clear the NFL's return-to-play protocols in time for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Yeboah could find himself in a starting role.

DECEMBER 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Enters COVID protocols Yeboah (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list after testing positive for COVID, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Impact Yeboah has worked his way up the Jets' tight end positional depth chart this season, starting on the practice squad but ultimately appearing in seven games so far. The undrafted rookie will try to get healthy, so he can return to the field and achieve his first career catch.

DECEMBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Could play more due to injuries Yeboah failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 33-18 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Yeboah's still looking for his first NFL catch, but the undrafted rookie tight end could be thrust into a more prominent role moving forward. Tyler Kroft (chest) is on injured reserve and Ryan Griffin exited the loss to Philadelphia with an ankle injury, joining Trevon Wesco (ankle) on the sidelines. As a result of injuries at the position, it's conceivable that the Jets' depth at tight end in Week 14 against the Saints will consist of just Yeboah and journeyman special teams contributor Daniel Brown.
