Griffin (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Trevon Wesco also dealing with an ankle injury, the Jets' current healthy tight end options in advance of the team's Week 14 game against the Saints are Kenny Yeboah and Daniel Brown.

Griffin left Sunday's game against the Eagles with an ankle injury, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Griffin caught three of four targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 21-14 win over Houston.
EDGE Analysis
Griffin actually ranked second on the team in targets behind Elijah Moore. The one pass he didn't catch was the most important ball thrown Griffin's way, as Zach Wilson extended the play and delivered a well-placed ball to the back of the end zone, where Griffin was unable to come down with a difficult but makeable catch. The veteran tight end plays a consistent but relatively minor role.

Griffin caught three of four targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
Griffin set a season high in receiving yards, which means he's yet to break 40 in a game this season. He's one of fantasy's least exciting starting tight ends and isn't likely to be a popular pickup despite the season-best effort.

Griffin caught one of two targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 45-17 loss to Buffalo.
EDGE Analysis
Griffin has caught more than one pass only once in his last seven games. Despite his spot atop the Jets' tight end depth chart, Griffin remains a rarely targeted option, regardless of who New York puts under center.

Griffin caught four of seven targets for 28 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 45-30 loss to Indianapolis.
EDGE Analysis
Griffin took on a larger role after Tyler Kroft (chest) got hurt again, and Griffin capitalized on the extra opportunities. He set season highs in targets, catches and receiving yards while scoring his first touchdown since Week 11 of the 2019 season. Griffin's 13-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter cut New York's deficit to 19 points.

Griffin caught his only target for seven yards in Sunday's 34-31 win over the Bengals.
EDGE Analysis
Griffin split time with Tyler Kroft (back), who was back in action for the first time since Week 4. Kroft caught the game-winning touchdown in the fourth quarter, while Griffin's still searching for his first touchdown of the season and hasn't caught more than one pass in a game since Week 2.

Griffin caught one of two targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 54-13 loss to the Patriots.
EDGE Analysis
In case you needed more proof that Griffin's an afterthought regardless of Tyler Kroft's (back) health, here it is. Griffin has at least one catch in every game this season, but he's yet to eclipse 22 yards in a game or score a touchdown.

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.

Griffin caught one of two targets for four yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Falcons.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Tyler Kroft's (back) absence didn't lead to a significant increase in production for Griffin. Regardless of whether Griffin remains atop the Jets' tight end depth chart after the team's Week 6 bye, he'll be an afterthought for fantasy purposes.
