Griffin is expected to serve as the Jets' starting tight end Sunday against the Patriots with Tyler Kroft (back) ruled out for a third straight game.

EDGE Analysis

Griffin played more than 90 percent of the Jets' offensive snaps in the last game Kroft missed Week 5 against the Falcons, but the former drew just two targets in the contest. Another heavy snap count could be in the offing for Griffin on Sunday, but he'll likely remain a low-priority option in the New York passing game.
