Sadiq's recovery setback drops sleeper appeal; TE17 ranking could slip further.
Kenyon SadiqNYJ
Sadiq was the first TE taken in the 2026 NFL Draft, going 16th overall to the Jets, with elite athleticism (4.39 40-yard dash). However, he underwent offseason hernia surgery and is currently listed as the team's No. 2 TE behind Mason Taylor. Jets head coach Aaron Glenn reported that Sadiq had a 'little setback' in his recovery, though he is confident he'll still be available for Week 1. With the quality of depth at tight end this season, it's getting harder to buy Sadiq as a sleeper. He's currently TE17 in consensus rankings but could slip if he doesn't return to action shortly.
