Austin Seferian-Jenkins Led All Tight Ends With 8 Receptions in Week 6

Despite missing the first two games of the season, Austin Seferian-Jenkins is currently just 3 receptions shy of the Jets' team lead.

He has been heavily involved over the past two games, leading the team with a total of 19 targets for 14 receptions and 2 touchdowns over that span. His 16.60 PPR fantasy points were the 4th-most of any tight end in Week 6, giving him a top-10 finish for the second week in a row.

He has not been very efficient, as his 0.16 Reception NEP per target ranks dead last among the 44 tight ends with 10 or more targets this season. But his average of 7.25 targets per game ranks 5th among all tight ends, making him an appealing fantasy option.

In Week 7, ASJ will get another crack at the Dolphins, who allowed him to catch 5 of 6 targets for 31 yards in his first game of the season back in Week 3.
