Analysis
The signing of a two-year extension in December 2025 shows the front office values him as a rotational/depth piece, but that contract does not translate into receiving volume under the current pecking order. The clearest near-term catalyst is new OC Frank Reich's plan to lean more heavily into multi-tight-end personnel groupings than the Jets did last season, which could modestly lift Ruckert's snap floor even without a target-share breakthrough; the other realistic catalyst is an injury to Sadiq or Taylor. Absent either, Ruckert projects as a touchdown-dependent streaming option at best.
