New York Jets TE Kellen Winslow (knee) did not practice Thursday, Nov. 21.

Fantasy Tip: That's two straight days of missed practice for Winslow. Not a good sign. Leave him to your bench or the waiver wire. Jeff Cumberland could see his role increase if Winslow is limited or doesn't play.

New York Jets TE Kellen Winslow (knee) was limited in practice Wednesday, Nov. 13.

Fantasy Tip: Winslow's involvement may be minimal initially upon his return from a four-game suspension, with Jeff Cumberland cutting into his playing time. Don't forget about Winslow, though, but he's a midrange backup TE for the rest of the year.

New York Jets TE Kellen Winslow believes he was "weeded out" of the game plan in Week 5 as the team prepared for his four-game suspension. "Stuff goes on behind the scenes that ... look, they knew I was going to get suspended," Winslow said. "Sometimes you just kind of get weeded out or whatever. I knew I wasn't going to take the appeal if I got suspended. My knee was hurting, I'm weeded out of the game plan ... it was just a frustrating time." TE Jeff Cumberland was given a bigger role as a result, and Winslow played in only 19 snaps.

Fantasy Tip: Expect the Jets to start getting Winslow involved again, but it may come gradually with Cumberland still in the mix. Consider Winslow a backup option for now, but he may have low-end TE1 appeal based on matchups.

New York Jets TE Kellen Winslow has returned to the team following his four-game suspension for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing drugs. "I think it was something over my allergies, some medicine I was taking and it was on the banned substance list. It's just life. You deal with stuff. People that know me know I'm not trying to gain an edge or something like that illegally. I respect the game too much for that."

Fantasy Tip: Winslow should return to the primary tight end duties, pushing Jeff Cumberland down and making him largely unplayable in fantasy leagues. Winslow is on a bye in Week 10, but look to add him as a strong backup option for the rest of the season.

New York Jets TE Zach Sudfeld saw an increase in playing time in Week 9 against the New Orleans Saints with TE Jeff Cumberland (concussion) inactive and TE Kellen Winslow (suspended) serving the last game of a suspension. Sudfeld had two receptions for 46 yards.

Fantasy Tip: With Cumberland and Winslow expected to return in Week 11 after the team's bye, the playing time for Sudfeld is likely to dry up. Avoid him for fantasy purposes.

New York Jets TE Jeff Cumberland (concussion) was limited during practice Friday, Nov. 1, and is listed questionable for Week 9.

Fantasy Tip: There were reports earlier in the week that he will miss the game, but owners should check the inactive lists to see if he sits out. Owners should have a backup plan if they have Cumberland as their starting tight end.

New York Jets TE Jeff Cumberland (concussion) will not be able to play Week 9 because of the concussion he suffered Week 8.

Fantasy Tip: With Cumberland and Kellen Winslow out of the lineup, none of the other Jets tight ends have fantasy value at this point. Owners that have Cumberland should look for other options available to fill in at tight end.

New York Jets TE Jeff Cumberland (concussion) is dealing with a mild concussion, according to a source. His status for Week 9 is unknown, but he's likely to play against the New Orleans Saints.

Fantasy Tip: Cumberland's availability in Week 9 will depend on whether he can pass league-mandated concussions tests this week. Stay tuned. Cumberland is more of a short-term backup tight end or bye week filler.

New York Jets TE Jeff Cumberland (head) left the Week 8 game against the Cincinnati Bengals due to a head injury.

Fantasy Tip: The head injury explains why Cumberland ended up with just one catch, and two targets, for nine yards. Avoid him in Week 9.

With New York Jets WR Santonio Holmes (hamstring) ruled out for the Week 8 game against the Cincinnti Bengals, WRs Stephen Hill, Jeremy Kerley (hamstring) and even David Nelson (hamstring) are likely to see more targets, as might TE Jeff Cumberland.

Fantasy Tip: Hill and Kerley are worth a look as a WR4 or flex play in fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams, and Cumberland is a decent bye-week replacement if you primary option is off. However, you can mostly ignore Nelson for fantasy purposes.

Fantasy Tip: Cumberland and Kerley were solid in this game, but they still have more value to their real team than to fantasy owners going forward.

New York Jets C Nick Mangold (arm) left the game Sunday, Sept. 8, against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but later returned. Mangold was injured on a play in which the Buccaneers sacked QB Geno Smith. He remained face down on the turf for a few moments while trainers checked on him. Mangold eventually rolled over on his back as the trainers looked at his right arm. Mangold walked to the sideline on his own, but was taken to the locker room a few minutes later. He missed two offensive plays, but was back in -- wearing a black sleeve on his right arm -- on the Jets' next possession. TE Jeff Cumberland (head) also left in the first half with an apparent head injury, but returned at the start of the fourth quarter.

New York Jets TE Kellen Winslow (knee) will rest one practice per week to preserve his surgically repaired right knee. Winslow is expected to miss each Wednesday from practice. He sat out two or three days in a row during training camp per week.

Fantasy Tip: Winslow is behind Jeff Cumberland on the team's depth chart, and he'll have plenty to prove to increase his reps. Ignore Winslow in drafts and on the waiver wire.

New York Jets TE Jeff Cumberland is expected to serve as the team's starting tight end, and head coach Rex Ryan praised him Wednesday, July 31. "I see Cumberland kind of gaining his speed back. I don't know if that's true or not, but it looked faster to me. When he came into the league, there's a guy that ran a 4.4," Ryan said.

Fantasy Tip: Even if Cumberland were able to win the starting job, he should only be considered as a bye-week or emergency replacement by fantasy owners.

New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan said TE Jeff Cumberland is the starting tight end, followed by TEs Konrad Reuland and Hayden Smith.

Fantasy Tip: Cumberland has done very little in his three years in the league, but he played receiver in college. He has good hands and a good burst. The lack of weapons around him and shotty pass protection could force his number to be called often in the offense. Look for him as a late-round flier as a TE2.
