From the article

Rookie Kenyon Sadiq was selected by the Jets with the 16th overall pick in the 2026 NFL draft. That kind of draft capital spent on a tight end is rare and usually presages great expectations. Unfortunately Sadiq missed virtually the entire offseason and is now playing catch up. We are unlikely to see Sadiq in a major role early on in the season given how behind he is with the offense.

Sadiq unlikely to play major role early; offseason absence puts him behind.

Rookie tight end selected 16th overall in 2026 NFL draft; missed virtually entire offseason and is playing catch-up. Unlikely to see major role early in season given how far behind he is with the offense. Key question is how quickly he can catch up and whether he can deliver the game-changing results the Jets expect this season, or if his upside must wait until next year.
