Links up with Chicago
Griffin is signing a one-year contract with the Bears, Mark Grote of WSCR Radio reports.
Analysis: Griffin has 67 career starts in 119 regular-season games but likely will fill a depth role with the Bears behind 2020 second-round pick Cole Kmet, who showed signs of progress in the second half of last season. Griffin, meanwhile, caught 27 of 42 targets for 261 yards and two TDs in 14 games (12 starts) for the Jets. He turned 32 earlier this offseason and has never reached 500 yards in a season.

Let go by Jets
New York released Griffin on Monday, Randy Lange of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: Griffin's release comes as little surprise after the Jets brought in two tight ends in free agency in C.J. Uzomah and Tyler Conklin, who were both on track to slot in ahead of him on the depth chart. The Jets will clear $3 million in cap space by moving on from Griffin, who recorded 27 receptions for 261 yards and two touchdowns on 42 targets over 14 games in 2021.

Lands on COVID list
Griffin (knee) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Griffin already was on injured reserve and lost for the season due to a knee injury, so his placement on the COVID-19 list won't impact the Jets' game plan this Sunday. Tyler Kroft remains in line to take over as New York's starting tight end.

Shut down for season
Griffin (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Ethan Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: Griffin will miss the Jets' remaining three games after sustaining a knee injury in a Week 15 loss to Miami. Though he's the only player on the New York roster to record a catch in each of the team's first 14 games, Griffin's overall 27-261-2 receiving line didn't translate to much fantasy utility. His absence paves the way for Tyler Kroft to serve as the Jets' clear top tight end down the stretch.

Unlikely to play Week 16
Head coach Robert Saleh said Monday that Griffin is likely to sit out the team's Week 16 game against the Jaguars due to a knee injury, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: Before the Jets formally rule Griffin out for Week 16, he'll undergo further tests on his knee over the next couple of days. He likely picked up the injury at some point during Sunday's loss in Miami, where he played a season-low 39 percent of the Jets' offensive snaps and finished with two receptions for 39 yards on two targets. Tyler Kroft, who made his return against the Dolphins after a five-game absence due to a lung laceration, should take on a larger share of the snaps at tight end Week…read more

Another two-catch game
Griffin caught both of his targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Dolphins.
Analysis: Fellow tight end Tyler Kroft (lung) made his first appearance since Week 9 and totaled two catches for 35 yards, but Griffin didn't deviate from his typical production despite Kroft's presence. Then again, that typical production doesn't warrant much attention in fantasy.

Two catches in latest quiet game
Griffin (ankle/knee) caught two of three targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 30-9 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Griffin rarely comes off the field due to New York's lack of healthy alternatives at tight end, but the high snap count rarely results in many targets. He hasn't reached 40 yards in a game this season, and Griffin has caught more than three passes only once, totaling four receptions against the Colts back in Week 9.

Good to go Sunday
Griffin (ankle/knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Saints, Randy Lange of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: Though Griffin was listed as questionable for the Week 14 contest, there wasn't much doubt about his status after he practiced fully Friday. Griffin has served as the Jets' clear top tight end since Tyler Kroft (chest) went on injured reserve Nov. 9, but he's typically served as little more than a tertiary option in the passing attack with four or fewer targets over the past four contests. However, Griffin could be in store for a spike in involvement in the offense Sunday, as the Jets recently…read more

Questionable despite full practice
Griffin (knee/ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints, Rich Cimini of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Griffin's trending in the right direction, as he was able to log a full practice Friday after being limited Thursday and missing practice entirely Wednesday. Barring a setback, the starting tight end should suit up. With Trevon Wesco (ankle) ruled out, Kenny Yeboah is the Jets' only other available option at the position.

Logs limited session
Griffin (ankle) returned to a limited practice Wednesday. Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Griffin missed Wednesday's practice, so his upgrade to limited participation Thursday suggests that he's moving in the right direction in advance of Sunday's game against the Saints. The tight end presumably will have to practice fully Friday in order to avoid a Week 14 injury designation, however.

Griffin (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

Three catches as Wilson returns
Griffin caught three of four targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 21-14 win over Houston.
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.

Three catches in loss
Griffin caught three of four targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Dolphins.
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.

One catch in Week 10 loss
Griffin caught one of two targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 45-17 loss to Buffalo.
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.

Finds end zone after Kroft injury
Griffin caught four of seven targets for 28 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 45-30 loss to Indianapolis.
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.

One catch again in Kroft's return
Griffin caught his only target for seven yards in Sunday's 34-31 win over the Bengals.
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.

One catch in Week 7
Griffin caught one of two targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 54-13 loss to the Patriots.
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.

Another start awaits
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.
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.

One catch with Kroft out
Griffin caught one of two targets for four yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Falcons.
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.

Starting in London
Griffin will work as New York's starting tight end Sunday against the Falcons with Tyler Kroft (back) ruled out for the contest, Tyler Greenawalt of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Griffin and Kroft have split reps over the first four weeks, though neither tight end has played a significant role in the passing game. Kroft didn't make the trip to London with the team, but the Jets will activate rookie tight end Kenny Yeboah from the practice squad to provide a depth option behind Griffin in the matchup with Atlanta.

One catch in Week 4 win
Griffin caught one of four targets for eight yards in Sunday's 27-24 overtime win over the Titans.
Analysis: Griffin was more involved than Tyler Kroft, who was held without a catch while playing through a rib injury, but neither tight end made much of an impact. In overtime, Griffin got open for what could have been the game-winning touchdown, but quarterback Zach Wilson's throw in his direction was low, and Griffin failed to secure the catch as a result. The Jets managed to secure the win nonetheless, giving them a much-needed confidence boost heading into a Week 5 clash with the Falcons in London.

Quiet as Kroft goes down
Griffin caught his only target for five yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: Griffin once again split reps at tight end with Tyler Kroft until Kroft was forced to exit the game due to a rib injury. While a modest bump in usage could be on the horizon for Griffin if Kroft's forced to miss additional time, New York has just 20 points through three games and hasn't featured the tight end position much in the passing game. Griffin's season stat line heading into a Week 4 game against the Titans consists of just six catches for 37 yards.

Quiet in Week 2 loss
Griffin caught both of his targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 25-6 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Griffin was marginally more productive than Tyler Kroft, who caught one of two targets for eight yards. Neither member of the Jets' veteran tight end duo has much fantasy appeal given their minimal involvement in the passing attack.

Six targets in Week 1
Griffin caught three of six targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 19-14 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: Griffin and Tyler Kroft (three catches for 26 yards) split tight end duties. Zach Wilson frequently used his tight ends as security blankets as the Panthers' pass rush overwhelmed the Jets' offensive line in the first half, but the rookie quarterback pushed the ball downfield to his wide receivers in the second half once Carolina's defense tired out. Griffin has topped 320 yards just once in eight previous NFL seasons, so he remains off the radar in most fantasy formats.

Re-ups with Jets
New York re-signed Griffin on Thursday.

Released by Jets
Griffin (hamstring) was released by the Jets on Tuesday.
Analysis: Griffin was hampered by a hamstring injury during training camp. His release and the trade of Chris Herndon to the Vikings leaves the Jets' with Tyler Kroft and Trevon Wesco as the No. 1 and No. 2 tight ends. The nine-year veteran joined New York in 2019 and accumulated 43 receptions for 406 yards and five touchdowns during that time.

Dealing with hammy injury
Griffin was evaluated for a hamstring injury Monday, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: Any missed time could hurt Griffin's chances to earn regular-season snaps, given that he's competing with both Chris Herndon and Tyler Kroft. None of the bunch is likely to have mainstream fantasy value, especially if they end up splitting snaps.

Sees first-team reps in spring
Griffin and Tyler Kroft received reps with the No. 1 offense during mandatory minicamp while Chris Herndon (hamstring) struggled to pick up the offense, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Griffin was limited to nine catches for 86 yards in 15 games last season, but the starting role at tight end appears to be wide open entering training camp. Herndon was a full-time starter in 2020 and remains the favorite to top the depth chart again in 2021, but his struggles picking up the playbook are notable with a new coaching staff in place. Griffin could find himself with a larger role this season if he performs well during training camp and the preseason.

Just nine catches all year
Griffin wasn't targeted in Sunday's 28-14 loss to New England. He finishes the season with nine catches for 86 yards.
Analysis: Griffin scored a career-high five touchdowns while spending much of last season as New York's top tight end, but he failed to find the end zone as the backup to a healthy Chris Herndon this year. With two more years remaining on his contract, Griffin should reprise his depth role with the Jets next season.

Activated from COVID-19 list
Griffin was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday.
Analysis: Griffin missed last week's win over the Browns, but he'll return to the lineup for the season finale against the Patriots. The 30-year-old tight end has averaged 26.1 offensive snaps per game. He currently has career lows in receptions (nine) and receiving yards (86) in a season.

Hits COVID-19 list
The Jets placed Griffin on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Griffin's placement on the reserve list could mean either that he's either tested positive for COVID-19 or been deemed a close contact of an infected person. If the veteran tight end is unable to gain clearance in time for Sunday's game against the Browns, Trevon Wesco and Daniel Brown would serve as the top backup options behind starting tight end Chris Herndon.

Two catches in Week 13
Griffin caught both of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Raiders.

Two grabs in Week 9
Griffin caught both of his targets for 28 yards in Monday's 30-27 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Griffin was the only Jets tight end to draw a target in this one, as nominal No. 1 tight end Chris Herndon remains stuck on one catch over the past four games. The position hasn't been featured much despite all of New York's injuries at wide receiver, and with the team's receiving corps finally healthy, Griffin and Herndon will likely continue to battle for scraps moving forward.

Two catches in shutout loss
Griffin caught two of three targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 24-0 loss to Miami.
Analysis: Griffin was actually New York's most productive tight end with Chris Herndon failing to record a catch, but that's not saying much. While Griffin has five catches to Herndon's three over the past three games, neither tight end is doing enough to warrant attention in the fantasy realm, even considering the league-wide dearth of production from the position.

Griffin caught all three of his targets for 10 yards in Thursday's 37-28 loss to the Broncos.

No catches on two targets
Griffin failed to corral either of his two targets in Sunday's 36-7 loss to the Colts.

The Jets (ankle) activated Griffin from the active/PUP list Saturday, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: Griffin took the practice field for the first time in training camp, as he was recovering from a December ankle injury. It looks like Chris Herndon will secure the No. 1 tight-end job, but Griffin is a steady backup and produced a 34-320-5 line with Herndon out of the picture last year.

Analysis: Griffin continues to recover from an ankle procedure, but once he's healthy, the 30-year-old will look to secure his role in the Jets' passing game. The looming return of Chris Herndon limits Griffin's fantasy upside heading into the 2020 season, but when pressed into expanded duty last year, Griffin put up a 34-320-5 stat line in 13 games.

He mentioned that the ligament damage he suffered was so significant that his rehab timeline actually would be shorter if he had simply broken his ankle.

Analysis: One of three players on the Jets' Week 14 injury report listed with an illness, Griffin looks to be trending toward playing Sunday after at least managing limited showings in practice Thursday and Friday. If Griffin's condition ultimately takes a turn for the worse ahead of Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff, the Jets would turn to Daniel Brown and Trevon Wesco to handle all the snaps at tight end.

Returns to practice
Griffin (illness) will return to a limited practice Thursday, Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports.
Analysis: Griffin sat out practice Wednesday, so his return to the field Thursday puts him on track to play Sunday against the Dolphins. Friday's final injury report will reveal whether the tight end will head into the weekend listed as questionable or free from a Week 14 injury designation.

Feeling ill
Griffin will miss Wednesday's practice due to an illness, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: The 29-year-old still has plenty of time to shake of the illness and return to health before Sunday's game against the Dolphins. Griffin has emerged as a low-end TE1 in many fantasy leagues, scoring eight or more PPR points five of the past six weeks.

Five catches in loss
Griffin caught five of seven targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 22-6 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Griffin recorded his third game with at least five catches this season, all of which have come in the past five games. New York couldn't get into the end zone in this one, so the tight end's modest touchdown streak came to an end at two games. Given the lack of quality alternatives at the position, Griffin should be in the TE1 mix when the Dolphins come to town in Week 14.

Strong run continues
Griffin caught all three of his targets for 13 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-3 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Griffin only scored seven touchdowns in six seasons with the Texans, but he now has five touchdowns with the Jets in 2019, including four in the past five games. Given his productivity in green and white, it's no surprise the team opted to ink the 29-year-old tight end to an extension Saturday. Griffin's touchdown in this one came from one yard out on a beautifully designed play that had quarterback Sam Darnold look right before coming back left to Griffin with no Raiders on that side of the…read more

Inks extension with Jets
Griffin signed a multi-year extension with the Jets on Saturday.
Analysis: Griffin is coming off a five-catch, 109-yard performance last week against the Redskins and will now spend a few more seasons in New York. According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, it's a three-year extension and could be worth up to $10.8 million, and it also includes $4 million guaranteed. The 29-year-old has started all 10 games this season and has 25 catches for 269 yards and four touchdowns, and he's taken full advantage of the absence of Chris Herndon (ribs, suspension).

Tops 100 receiving yards
Griffin converted all five of his targets into receptions for 109 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 11 win over the Redskins.
Analysis: Griffin was a deep target all game, as four of his five receptions went for more than 15 yards. His long catch of the day went for 48 yards, with Sam Darnold finding him wide open along the sideline. Just one play later, he hauled in a 16-yard pass to find the end zone for his fourth touchdown of the season. Given Chris Herndon's (rib) placement on injured reserve, Griffin should be in a good position to serve as the team's top receiving tight end option for the remainder of the campaign. He'll…read more

Likely back as starting tight end
Griffin is expected to serve as the Jets' starting tight end Week 11 against the Redskins after teammate Chris Herndon was diagnosed Monday with a fractured rib, Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports.
Analysis: Though he didn't definitively rule Herndon out for the season, coach Adam Gase noted that the tight end would likely be out for "an extended period of time" as a result of his latest setback on the health front. Before moving into a more reduced role while Herndon made his season debut in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Giants, Griffin had played at least 84 percent of the snaps in each of the Jets' preceding eight games. Griffin proved to be little more than a marginal fantasy option during that…read more

Lays egg in Herndon's return
Griffin caught his lone target for minus-two yards in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Griffin's disappearance coincided with Chris Herndon's return from a hamstring injury. While Herndon was quiet himself with just one catch for seven yards, Griffin's value should remain asymptotic to zero as long as Herndon's healthy.

Has TD overturned
Griffin caught six of eight targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 26-18 loss to the Dolphins.
Analysis: Griffin appeared to come down with his third touchdown in the last two games late in the first half, but the would-be two-yard score was ruled incomplete on replay. Chris Herndon (hamstring) is getting closer to rejoining the team on the field and was actually active for this one, but he didn't get into the game. Once Herndon returns to game action, Griffin will likely fall off the fantasy radar, but it's not clear if that will happen by the Jets' Week 10 meeting with the Giants.
