Not jetting to London
The Jets have ruled out Kroft (back) for Sunday's game against the Falcons in London, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Kroft was among three Jets that won't make the trip across the pond. With a back injury in tow and no practice so far this week, he'll be sidelined for the first time this season. In Kroft's stead, Ryan Griffin should be New York's primary tight end Sunday, while Trevon Wesco and Daniel Brown are candidates for elevated roles.

Nursing back injury
Kroft won't practice Wednesday due to a back injury, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: Since logging three catches for 26 yards Week 1, Kroft, who played through a rib issue this past Sunday against the Titans, has totaled just three catches for 20 yards over the Jets' subsequent three contests. If Kroft ends up sitting out this weekend against the Falcons, Ryan Griffin would operate as the Jets' clear No. 1 tight end after splitting work with Kroft through the first four contests.

One target in Week 4 win
Kroft (rib) failed to haul in his only target in Sunday's 27-24 overtime win over the Titans.
Analysis: Kroft gutted it out through a rib injury but wasn't a major part of the game plan, while fellow tight end Ryan Griffin mustered eight yards on four targets. Quarterback Zach Wilson had the best game of his young career but found success by pushing the ball downfield to wide receivers rather than checking it down to his tight ends.

Good to go Sunday
Kroft (rib) is active for Sunday's game against the Titans, Randy Lange of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: Though Kroft took a questionable designation into the weekend, the Jets never seemed to have too much concern about his availability after he turned in a full practice Friday. Through the Jets' first three contests, Kroft has paced the team's tight ends in snaps, but he has only six receptions for 46 yards and no touchdowns on nine targets to show for it.

Questionable after full practice
Kroft (rib) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Kroft upgraded to full practice participation Friday after limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday, suggesting the starting tight end is trending in the right direction. He already had a limited role in the low-octane Jets offense, and now Kroft likely will have to compete for targets over the middle of the field with slot receiver Jamison Crowder, who is listed as questionable with a groin injury of his own but expected to make his season debut against Tennessee.

Limited session Wednesday
Kroft (rib) was limited at practice Wednesday.
Analysis: That Kroft was able to practice in any fashion suggests that he has a chance to suit up Sunday against the Titans. However, with six catches on nine targets for 46 yards over his first three games with the Jets, he's only a fantasy option at tight end in deeper formats.

Injury actually to ribs
Kroft sustained a rib injury rather than a chest injury in Sunday's loss to the Broncos, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Either way, the starting tight end was ruled out after catching two passes for 12 yards. Kroft will try to heal up in time to face the Titans in Week 4, and Ryan Griffin would likely get the start at tight end should Kroft sit.

Injures chest Sunday
Kroft has been ruled out of Sunday's game at Denver due to a chest injury.
Analysis: Prior to his exit, Kroft hauled in both of his targets for 12 yards. With Kroft sidelined, Ryan Griffin, Trevon Wesco and Daniel Brown are the remaining tight ends of the Jets' active roster.

One catch in Week 2
Kroft caught one of two targets for eight yards in Sunday's 25-6 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Kroft and fellow tight end Ryan Griffin (two catches for 10 yards) both played minor roles as the Jets failed to find the end zone in their home opener. With rookie quarterback Zach Wilson struggling to get comfortable at the NFL level, the Jets' passing attack will be tough to trust in Week 3 against the Broncos.

Splits with Griffin in opener
Kroft caught three of five targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 19-14 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: Kroft and Ryan Griffin (three catches for 22 yards on six targets) saw similar involvement. Rookie quarterback Zach Wilson targeted the tight end position 11 times in this one, but the absences of veteran wide receivers Jamison Crowder (illness) and Keelan Cole (knee) likely played a role in that volume. Even though he sits atop the tight-end depth chart, Kroft's role will likely remain limited compared to some of the Jets' other pass-catchers.

Primed for key role?
Kroft is the only true tight end left on the roster after the Jets traded Chris Herndon and cut Kenny Yeboah, Daniel Brown and Ryan Griffin, NJ.com's Joey Chandler reports.
Analysis: The Jets' passing game figures to focus on their deep group of wide receivers, but they'll presumably still need someone to take snaps at tight end, where the current choices are Kroft or 267-pound blocking specialist Trevon Wesco (three catches on 360 career offensive snaps). The 28-year-old Kroft had chances to start in Cincinnati and Buffalo and maxed out at 42-404-7 as a 16-game starter for the Bengals in 2017, but he's at least shown some ability in the red zone with 12 TDs on 85 career…read more

Pair of TDs as team's top TE
Kroft caught both of his targets for 36 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday's 23-14 preseason win over the Packers.
Analysis: Kroft scored a pair of 18-yard touchdowns thrown by starting quarterback Zach Wilson -- the first two touchdowns of Wilson's NFL career. On both plays, Kroft caught the ball outside the end zone and used his 6-foot-6, 252-pound frame to power his way over the goal line. After signing with the Jets in the offseason, the 28-year-old Kroft has made a strong impression and appears to have surpassed Chris Herndon for the top spot on the team's tight end depth chart heading into the preseason finale…read more

Makes strong early impression
Kroft worked with the No. 1 offense throughout the spring and could supplant Chris Herndon (hamstring) atop the depth chart at tight end, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: Kroft had an uneventful two years with the Bills before latching on with the Jets in March, and he's had a strong showing so far in the offseason. Kroft caught 12 of 16 targets for 119 yards and three touchdowns over 10 games in 2020, and he's had trouble staying healthy in the past three seasons. Herndon is the assumed starter entering training camp, but he's endured his own struggles and picked up a hamstring injury during mandatory minicamp. If Kroft can stay healthy he may be able to push…read more

Joining forces with Jets
Kroft is signing a contract with the Jets, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: The former Bills tight end will remain in the AFC East, where he stands to play a depth role with the Jets. Kroft only had a combined 190 receiving yards across two seasons in Buffalo, but he dealt with serious injuries in that span. A full offseason to get healthy could serve him well with his new team.

Quick move off COVID-19 list
Kroft, who was placed on the COVID-19 list Saturday ahead of the Bills' Week 17 finale against the Dolphins, was activated off the list Monday, Dante Lasting of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Even though he cost a pretty penny in 2019 free agency, Kroft is a clear backup to Dawson Knox these days. However, he'll now be a depth option ahead of Saturday's playoff opener against the Colts.

Heads to COVID-19 list
Kroft has tested positive for COVID-19 and will not play in the regular-season finale against the Dolphins, the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: While Kroft did suit up Monday against the Patriots, he's a clear reserve behind Dawson Knox and is often a healthy scratch these days, so this development doesn't change the fantasy landscape unless any of Kroft's teammates are deemed close contacts.

Kroft (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday versus the Steelers.
Analysis: Since he sat out Week 10 due to being on the reserve/COVID-19 list as a high-risk close contact, Kroft has been a healthy scratch for the three contests in which he's been back on the active roster. The Bills will go with Dawson Knox and Lee Smith at tight end Week 14.

Not facing 49ers
Kroft is inactive (coach's decision) for Monday's game against the 49ers.
Analysis: Since going on the reserve/COVID-19 list between Nov. 14 and Nov. 19, the 28-year-old has been unable to re-establish himself in the lineup for Buffalo. He suited up for the Bills' first nine games of 2020 (with four starts), collecting 12 receptions, 119 yards and three receiving scores. Buffalo selected Dawson Knox and Lee Smith as its only active tight ends for Monday night.

Healthy scratch Sunday
Kroft (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Analysis: The 27-year-old was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list during Buffalo's bye last week, but he's a healthy scratch for Week 12. It's a surprising development as Kroft has operated as the team's secondary tight end all season when healthy. Lee Smith is the only other available tight end behind starter Dawson Knox.

Cleared to return from COVID list
The Bills activated Kroft from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
Analysis: Kroft ended up sitting out last week's loss to the Cardinals after being placed on the list Saturday due to being a close contact of cornerback Josh Norman, who tested positive for COVID-19. The tight end has since cleared all health-related protocols, so he'll be good to go when the Bills come out of their Week 11 bye. Expect Kroft to resume splitting work at his position with starter Dawson Knox.

Placed on reserve/COVID list
Kroft will not play in Sunday's contest against the Cardinals due to close contact with teammate Josh Norman, who has tested positive for COVID-19, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Kroft was expected to take on his usual role backing up Dawson Knox at tight end. As a result of this move, Lee Smith or Reggie Gilliam will likely replace him in that role. The Bills have a Week 11 bye, so Kroft's next chance to suit up will come Week 12 versus the Chargers.

One target in Week 8
Kroft caught his lone target for 11 yards in Sunday's 24-21 win over the Patriots.
Analysis: Kroft didn't see much volume as Buffalo went run-heavy on a windy day -- quarterback Josh Allen threw only 18 passes, and half of those went to Stefon Diggs. With fellow tight end Dawson Knox (illness/calf) still on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Kroft should continue to see the majority of playing time at tight end against the porous Seahawks secondary in Week 9.

Best game of 2020
Kroft caught all four of his targets for 64 yards in Sunday's win at the Jets.
Analysis: Kroft was thrust into a bigger-than-usual role when a COVID-19 issue swept through the Bills tight end room late last week -- the only reason he wasn't caught up in the virus scare was because he took a personal day to be with his newborn child. The new papa saw a season-high snap share of 78 percent and tied his season high in catches. While that's all a nice story, Kroft will revert back to his No. 2 role once starter Dawson Knox (calf) gets back at it.

Abruptly forced into major role
Kroft is the only true tight end currently allowed to suit up for Sunday's game against the Jets after multiple Bills tight ends were placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, according to the team's official press release.
Analysis: It's a unique situation as Kroft might be forced to play the entirety of Sunday's game with Dawson Knox, Tommy Sweeney, Lee Smith and practice squad tight end Nate Becker all placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. (Knox and Sweeney were not going to play anyway due to injury.) Kroft, who was attending the birth of his first child earlier in the week, was not in close proximity to Knox and therefore joins TE/FB Reggie Gilliam as the only Bills tight ends eligible to play Sunday.

Second straight start on tap
Kroft is expected to serve as the Bills' top tight end Sunday against the Jets with Dawson Knox (calf) ruled out for the contest.
Analysis: While Knox was sidelined for Weeks 3 and 6, Kroft played 74 of a possible 108 offensive snaps (68.5 percent) between the contests, producing five receptions for 31 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets. Kroft's 6-foot-6, 252-pound frame makes him an ideal target in the red zone, but even when guaranteed ample snaps, his fantasy floor remains fairly low if he's unable to find the end zone in a given week.

Low influence in offense
Kroft caught one of two targets for seven yards in Monday's 26-17 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Kroft played 57 percent of the offensive snaps -- his second-highest share of the season -- with top tight end Dawson Knox out with a calf injury. The increased reps didn't translate into production, however, as Kroft was held to one or zero receptions for the fifth time in six games this season. Knox seems like a decent bet to sit out one more game, so perhaps Kroft can turn the temporary starting role into a touchdown; he previously had two scores in Week 3.

Finds pay dirt twice
Kroft caught four of five targets for 24 yards and two scores during Sunday's win over the Rams.
Analysis: Kroft's second TD was one of the bigger ones in recent memory for the Buffalo franchise, as the 3-0 Bills prevented a huge meltdown against the Rams by coming back -- after blowing a 25-point lead -- to retake the lead via a nice three-yard touch pass from Josh Allen to Kroft with 15 seconds remaining. Kroft's value is truly tied to the status of starter Dawson Knox, who missed Sunday's game due to a concussion.

Set for Week 3 start
Kroft will serve as Buffalo's top tight end Sunday against the Rams with usual starter Dawson Knox (concussion) ruled out, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Kroft peaked in 2017 with 42 catches for 404 yards and seven touchdowns as a member of the Bengals. He only has six catches in 13 games since joining the Bills at the start of the 2019 season, however, so Kroft is unlikely to be a major part of the game plan. Still, his history of success in the red zone gives the 27-year-old tight end some appeal as a touchdown-dependent flier in deeper formats.

Empty stat line
Kroft did not receive a target for the second straight week during Sunday's win over Miami.
Analysis: Kroft has been a bust free-agent signing for the team since he came over from Cincinnati prior to the 2019 season, at least in terms of offensive production, as he's only caught more than one pass in a game a single time in 14 games as a Bill (including the postseason). If we're looking for good news, Kroft did see action on 31 offensive snaps, up from just four in Week 1. That's because starter Dawson Knox left the game with a concussion.

Returns from foot injury
Kroft is back at practice Tuesday after missing Monday's session due to a foot injury, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.
Analysis: Kroft had his foot stepped on Sunday, but fortunately for him and the Bills, it wasn't anything structural or related to his past foot problems. He'll resume his quest to try earning as much playing time as he can get in a tight end corps that will probably be led by second-year man Dawson Knox.

Kroft had his foot stepped on during Sunday's practice and is missing Monday's session, Thad Brown of WROC in Rochester reports.
Analysis: Normally this might not be a big deal, but Kroft has had major lower leg issues in the past.

Kroft is in good position to log a productive 2020 campaign with the Bills, Maddy Glab of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Kroft is coming off an injury-plagued 2019 campaign, in which he had just six catches for 71 yards and a touchdown across 11 games. Now fully recovered from the broken foot that caused him to sit out the first seven weeks of 2019, and having agreed to restructure his contract in order to remain with Buffalo, the 27-year-old should have real opportunities to compete with Dawson Knox for starting snaps in training camp.

Has contract restructured
Kroft and the Bills have come to a mutual agreement to restructure his contract, Nick Shook of NFL.com reports.
Analysis: Kroft's salary for 2020 is now $4 million with $3.4 million in full guarantees, and he'll become a free agent in 2021 rather than 2022. Shortening the length of his contract by a year while adding guarantees serves as a hint that Kroft, who logged just six catches for 71 yards and a touchdown during his injury-plagued 2019 campaign, will utilize the 2020 season as a "prove-it" audition. He stands to spend the offseason competing for Buffalo's top tight end spot with Dawson Knox.

Injury-plagued season
Kroft finished his first season with the Bills with just six catches on 14 targets for 71 yards and one touchdown over 11 regular-season games.
Analysis: Kroft suffered a broken foot in his very first practice with the Bills, then added an ankle injury on top of it as he was close to a return to action. He ended up playing the last 11 games plus the playoff loss, but by then he'd lost any chance to feel comfortable in the offense with everyone else long up to speed. Kroft went over 14 receiving yards just once and had zero or one catches in 11 of his 12 games played, counting the postseason. With rookies Dawson Knox and Tommy Sweeney coming…read more

Catchless in loss to Pats
Kroft was unable to haul in his lone target of Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Sunday's production could have been quite different as Josh Allen targeted him near the Patriots' goal line just before halftime. The two couldn't link up and Allen looked to Dion Dawkins on a trick play on the next snap. Kroft has been targeted multiple times in just one game this season and three of his 10 have been in the red zone. He hasn't produced much, but he may get a slight uptick in usage Sunday against the Jets, as the Bills are locked in as the AFC's fifth seed win, lose or draw.

Analysis: Kroft certainly picks his spots for Bills fans, as his last two touchdowns came with the Bengals in 2017 in an upset win at Baltimore that allowed the Bills to sneak into the playoffs. Sunday against the Steelers, his TD provided the winning points in a win that pushed the 2019 Bills into the postseason. That's about the extent of it for Kroft.

Catchless in loss
Kroft was unable to bring in his only target during Sunday's 24-17 loss to Baltimore.
Analysis: Kroft has now been held catchless in back-to-back weeks. The veteran tight end had his lone multi-target game of the season in Week 8 and has since seen all of three targets resulting in only 20 yards, in large part due to the emergence of rookie Dawson Knox. Kroft will be challenged to do much better down the stretch as the Bills wrap up with teams that are all average or better against the pass, starting Sunday against the Steelers fifth-ranked pass defense.

Back seat to Knox
Kroft caught his only target for 14 yards during Sunday's win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Fellow tight end Dawson Knox wasn't involved much in the passing game either (two catches, 11 yards), but the disparity was there once again in snap count, with Kroft seeing 31 percent of the offensive snaps to Knox's 78 percent. Kroft's season was mostly washed away due to injury, and with Knox playing so well as a rookie, the former is simply not of much value to fantasy teams for what remains of the season.

Kroft caught his lone target for a six-yard gain during Sunday's 37-20 win over Miami.
Analysis: Sunday's grab snapped a two-game catchless streak for Kroft and represented his first red-zone target of the season. The Rutgers product isn't lacking for time on the field, picking up at least 24 offensive snaps in four of the five games in which he's played this season, but he just seems to be an afterthought in the passing attack, seeing multiple targets in only one game.

Shut out of passing game
Kroft was not targeted in Sunday's loss to the Browns, though he was on the field for 43 percent of the offensive snaps.
Analysis: Kroft appears to finally be over his foot and ankle issues, yet that doesn't mean he's fantasy worthy, as he's taken a back seat to rookie Dawson Knox, who seems to be a more athletic receiver than Kroft and has been working with the offense for months while the free-agent signee was rehabilitating moderately severe injuries. Knox saw 58 percent of the offensive snaps Sunday and caught four balls for 55 yards on six targets. Kroft can't really be considered the starter at this stage any longer.

Moreover, he saw the field for only 26 percent of the offensive snaps in what was a close game for much of the afternoon, while rookie Dawson Knox was out there for 76 percent of the offense's plays.
