This was supposed to be the year Chris Herndon established himself as an upper-echelon tight end in the NFL after a solid rookie season. Instead, a suspension to start the season and multiple injuries derailed any chance at that.

Herndon caught only one pass for seven yards before landing on season-ending injured reserve. Ryan Griffin (34 receptions, 320 yards, five touchdowns) stepped in his place and emerged as a safety blanket for Sam Darnold before he too landed on IR late in the season. If it weren’t for Griffin’s standout play, this unit would’ve been a lost cause.
