🏈 Fantasy impact

Sadiq is reportedly on track to play Week 6, and Underdog NFL expects him to fully practice Friday. Managers should watch for official confirmation from the Jets, but his return would restore the rookie as the top tight end option for New York.

Sadiq’s usage has been inconsistent: a 23.5 PPR explosion in Week 3 was followed by a 0.3 PPR dud in Week 5. With a 5.6 point projection, only desperate managers or those in deeper leagues should consider starting him. If he sits, Mason Taylor (7.2 PPR in three games) would likely see the biggest uptick, but the Jets’ tight end room offers limited upside.
