New York Jets TE Chris Herndon looked ‘really good’ during organized team activities this week and ‘can be a huge red-zone weapon for Darnold and new coach Adam Gase,’ according to Brian Costello of the New York Post. Gase called Herndon a ‘unicorn type player’ in March and seems excited about what he can do with him inside his offense, per Costello.
Footballguys View: Herndon has some upside and we saw him earn the trust of QB Sam Darnold a year ago. He’s facing a suspension from the league after pleading to DWI back in January. Herndon finished as the No. 15 fantasy tight end in 2018 and has a current ADP of TE20 (14.04). We like what everyone is saying about him this offseason but need to see how many games he’s suspended for.
