Jeremy Ruckert caught all five of his targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in the Jets’ Week 3 loss to the Lions.

Kenyon Sadiq was the primary beneficiary of Mason Taylor’s absence with a 7/105/1 receiving line, but Ruckert was also part of Frank Reich’s plan to replace Taylor’s snaps. He posted career highs in catches and yards while scoring his second touchdown since entering the NFL in 2022. Ruckert isn’t on the fantasy radar for Week 4, but he’ll be a solid role player for the Jets if Taylor remains sidelined.
