Jace Amaro's roster spot with Jets is in danger?

New York Jets third-year tight end Jace Amaro's roster spot is in danger, head coach Todd Bowles made it seem.

What It Means:

The 49th overall pick in the 2014 draft, Amaro missed all of 2015 after catching 38 passes for 345 yards (9.1 YPR) as a rookie. Amaro was not drafted by the current Jets regime. "He’s competing for a spot like everybody else," Bowles said. "He missed a year. I haven’t seen him play yet." Whereas Bowles said the Jets "still see (Amaro) as an H-back," beat reporter Rich Cimini says "Amaro doesn't share the same thought," and sees himself as a "traditional tight end, capable of playing every down." This is a make-or-break year for Amaro in New York.

Amaro spent the 2015 season on the shelf, and 2014 saw him grab 0.53 Reception Net Expected Points (NEP) per target over 53 targets.
