• Jets' Xavier Gipson: One catch in loss to Colts

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Gipson caught his only target for 17 yards and netted 19 yards on three punt returns in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Colts. Gipson was on the field for 27 of 51 snaps on offense while Malachi Corley played 12, so Gipson continues to be the preferred option in the slot. The second-year pro has just five catches for 40 yards in that role all season. Gipson also contributes regularly as a return man, though Isaiah Davis was the only player to log a kickoff return for the Jets against the Colts.

• Jets' Xavier Gipson: Goes catch-less in Week 10

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Gipson didn't catch his lone target in Sunday's 31-6 loss to the Cardinals. Gipson remained quiet on offense despite ranking third among Jets wide receivers with a 41 percent snap share. He usually chips in some return yardage on special teams, but the Jets didn't register a kickoff return or punt return in the lopsided loss, as it was a lethargic effort in all three phases of the game.

• Jets' Xavier Gipson: Could emerge as No. 3 receiver

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Gipson is expected to serve as the Jets' No. 3 receiver beginning with Sunday's game at Arizona after New York traded Mike Williams to Pittsburgh on Tuesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. While the departure of Williams will open up some snaps at receiver, Gipson likely won't serve as an every-down player like Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams. The Jets are expected to make heavy use of two tight ends sets featuring Tyler Conklin and Jeremy Ruckert that would leave Gipson on the sideline, and 2024 third-round pick Malachi Corley could also be in the mix on three-wide sets. Gipson will continue to offer his most utility in fantasy leagues that count return yardage, as he seems locked in as the Jets' top kickoff and punt returner.

  25D ago • By RotoWire

  Gipson caught his only target for a one-yard touchdown in Sunday's 25-22 loss to the Patriots. Gipson made the most of his first target since Week 4, securing a tough catch on a low throw right at the goal line, which was upheld as a touchdown upon review. His contributions as a slot receiver come second to Gipson's special teams exploits. The second-year pro had 71 yards on four punt returns.

• Jets' Xavier Gipson: Two fumbles go out of bounds

  10/21/2024 • By RotoWire

  Gispon had two kickoff returns for 51 yards and two punt returns for four yards but wasn't targeted on offense in Sunday's 37-15 loss to the Steelers. Gipson was on the field for only one play on offense, as he remains a non-factor in a receiving corps that now includes Davante Adams. The return man dropped the ball twice on punt returns, but both fumbles went out of bounds. Gipson's a dangerous return man, but he'll need to get the ball-security issues under control lest his special-teams role shrinks as well.
