The New York Jets signed former Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah to a 3-year, $24 million dollar deal this offseason. With $15 million guaranteed from that deal, he is expected to have a large role in the new-look offense.
Uzomah is an excellent pass catcher and a big-time red-zone threat, but he is also a strong blocking tight end. He’ll pair with rookie TE Jeremy Ruckert and fellow free-agent addition TE Tyler Conklin to really energize a position that has been devoid of talent for a long time in New York.
Below, we look at C.J. Uzomah‘s 2022 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.
Uzomah is a player who has been rather durable over his career, playing 16 games in 3 of his last 4 seasons. He was limited to just 2 games due to a torn Achilles’ tendon in 2020 but bounced back nicely in 2021 with 49 grabs, 493 yards and 5 touchdowns — all career bests.
