*****Official Kenny Yeboah NY Jets TE Thread***** (1 Viewer)

[squistion]

Another Dynasty stash for those of you with roster space. This 6'3" 250 lb UDFA has been on the cusp of making the Jets team, and may have a bought a ticket on the roster with his performance tonight, 2 TDs receptions including this 49 yard Hail Mary catch from James Morgan (see below link).

HAIL KENNY. Kenny Yeboah, raised in Providence, ties the game for the abets with a 49 yard score, his second of the game!

Here is a recent article on this player:

Kenny Yeboah, TE, Jets

The Jets need to continue to add and develop explosive weapons for their offense and Kenny Yeboah could be a source of big plays for the Jets. Yeboah averaged 19.6 yards per catch last season at Ole Miss and scored six touchdowns on just 27 receptions.

Yeboah likely isn’t someone who will overtake Chris Herndon or Ryan Griffin in the starting lineup, but the Jets’ new scheme led by former 49ers’ coach Mike LaFleur should sprinkle in enough 13 personnel (one running back, three tight ends) to make Yeboah a factor in the passing game. The amount of play action the Jets will use will create favorable coverage matchups for Yeboah to use his athleticism.

Yeboah and former Ole Miss teammate Elijah Moore could both find themselves useful for Gang Green as they try to get their offense back on track.

Nothing to see here. For the first 4 years of his college career, he was like the 4th option on his team. He's about to be cut I bet.

Here is a recent article on this player:

I’m not sure how recent that article is but it fails to even mention the TE that’s been starting and is expected to start, Tyler Kroft.

Not even close to starting. Maybe not even making the team.

Did you bother even to read the OP?  It specifically says that he is a "dynasty stash" (that means a hold for the future and probably not of much fantasy value in the short term) It also said that he is "on the cusp" of making the team. I never claimed he was close to starting.

After his 4 Receptions for 100 Yards and 2 TDs performance last night, Kenny Yeboah was awarded the game ball by Coach Saleh:

He may still not make the team, but if he is cut will be picked up rather quickly by another team.

I would hope the Jets cut Ryan Griffin instead of Yeboah.

I would hope the Jets cut Ryan Griffin instead of Yeboah.

How about Herndon instead?  Is he still on the team?

 

[NYRAGE]

How about Herndon instead?  Is he still on the team?

Yes. He's wearing an invisibility cloak, so you'll need to look very closely.

 

[sushinsky4tsar]

So many TE stashes.   Anyone prioritizing him ahead of Granson or Jacob Harris?   

 

[Dr. Octopus]

How about Herndon instead?  Is he still on the team?

I’d think Herndon survives. Griffin is old and average - no reason to use a roster spot on him.

Harris >= Granson >> Yeboah for me.

The Jets cut rookie TE Kenny Yeboah earlier, per a source, so it looks like they're sticking with Tyler Kroft, Ryan Griffin and Daniel Brown at tight end, with Trevon Wesco playing more of a fullback role.

The #Jets have signed TE Kenny Yeboah and DL Tanzel Smart to the practice squad
