Stud: The Tight Ends

With Chris Herndon (broken ribs) sidelined for the rest of the season, the Jets needed a big boost from their tight ends and got it on Sunday.

Daniel Brown kicked off the scoring with his first career catch as a Jet. The touchdown was the third of Brown’s career and his first reception and target of the season. Ryan Griffin continued his success with Sam Darnold, catching his fourth touchdown of the season to give the Jets a 20-3 lead before halftime.

Griffin entered the day with a single-game career-high of 85 receiving yards. He recorded the first 100-yard receiving game of his career, catching five passes for 109 yards and a touchdown in Sunday’s win.
