Yahoo Sports NFL on Kenyon Sadiq
From the article
Kenyon Sadiq, a first-round pick this year out of Oregon who is viewed as a Swiss Army knife player who can line up all over the formation. Sadiq was the highest-rated tight end in the draft after scoring eight touchdowns for the Ducks last year. The Jets have high hopes for Sadiq, who missed the spring after hernia surgery.
STACKED’s take
Sadiq's versatility and draft pedigree position him as centerpiece of Jets' multi-TE offensive scheme.
Kenyon Sadiq, a first-round pick (No. 16 overall) in 2026 out of Oregon, is viewed as a Swiss Army knife player who can line up all over the formation. Sadiq was the highest-rated tight end in the draft after scoring eight touchdowns for the Ducks last year. Coach Aaron Glenn emphasized Sadiq's versatility, noting he can play at the X, Y-tight end, F, and in the backfield, though the coaching staff is mindful not to overload him with too many positions. Sadiq missed spring practice after hernia surgery and is now trying to make up for missed time. His presence gives the Jets the chance to embrace the NFL trend of multiple tight end usage, with the league using three or more tight ends on 1,845 total plays in 2025, the highest single-season mark since data tracking began in 2007.
