Browns and Jets tight ends per-snap analysis
The Browns no longer have poor blockers among the tight end group. David Njoku may be grumpy about the way he was treated in Cleveland, especially by the previous regime, but he has worked hard on his blocking and has shed his reputation as an athletic pass catcher without blocking ability to back it up. Now he does everything well. So does Austin Hooper and Harrison Bryant.
For that matter, there is nothing wrong with Stephen Carlson. He proved that with an excellent rookie campaign in 2019. He could start for many NFL teams.

Jets’ tight ends are not considered to be enormous threats receiving the ball. They are accumulating very modest yardage totals, led by Chris Herndon with 190 yards on the season and a very low 0.33 yards/snap. They are used mainly for blocking while keeping the opposing defenses honest.
With Sam Darnold’s return, the Jets may feature more of a deep strike capability, assuming they can keep him upright against the Browns’ defense.
