The Chiefs signed Firkser to the practice squad Saturday. Firkser was released by the Jets on Thursday as he served mostly on special teams over the past three games. Firkser will now head to Kansas City and take the spot on the practice squad vacated by Peyton Hendershot, who was signed to the Chiefs' active roster Saturday following Jared Wiley's season-ending torn ACL.
-
Firkser was released by the Jets on Thursday. The tight end was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster for Weeks 6-8 and played on seven offensive snaps and 51 special-teams snaps. Firkser also saw action in Week 1, but he has yet to record a catch this season. The seventh-year pro's last regular-season reception came in 2022 with the Falcons.

The Jets signed Firkser from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday. Firkser began the regular season on the Jets' practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He's played 28 snaps (six on offense, 22 on special teams) in the two games he's been elevated for, but he'll now join the active roster and provide depth at tight end. Firkser could serve as the Jets' No. 2 tight end behind Jeremy Ruckert on Sunday against the Steelers if starter Tyler Conklin (hip) is unable to play.
-
Firkser reverted to the Jets' practice squad Wednesday, per the NFL's transaction log. Firkser was elevated to the Jets' active roster ahead of Monday night's win over the Bills, but he'll now rejoin the team's practice squad. The Harvard product could be elevated to New York's active roster again if the Jets' tight end room faces injuries later this season.
-
Firkser was elevated to the Jets' active roster Monday. Firkser's elevation Monday could be an indication that Tyler Conklin (hip) will be inactive in Week 6, but it adds depth to the Jets' tight-end room regardless. Expect Firkser to see limited work with the Jets' offense and primarily play on special teams in Monday night's matchup against the Bills.
