Zack Kuntz: Joins Jets' practice squad
Kuntz signed with the Jets' practice squad Wednesday.
The 2023 seventh-round pick out of Old Dominion is sticking around in New York after failing to make the team's initial 53-man roster Tuesday. Kuntz appeared in one game for the Jets during his rookie campaign, recording no stats while playing just six total snaps (two offensive and four on special teams).

Zack Kuntz: Cut by Jets
Kuntz was waived by the Jets on Tuesday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.
Kuntz spent most of last season on New York's practice squad but did get work in one regular-season game, playing two offensive snaps and four special-teams snaps Week 18 against New England. The tight end out of Old Dominion could end up back on the Jets' practice squad if he clears waivers.

Jets' Zack Kuntz: Signed to 53-man roster
The Jets signed Kuntz to the 53-man roster Wednesday.
He takes the roster spot of offensive tackle Duane Brown )back), who was placed on injured reserve Wednesday. The 24-year-old Kuntz has never appeared in a regular-season game, but with Jeremy Ruckert (concussion) out for Thursday's game against the Browns and C.J. Uzomah (knee) on injured reserve, the tight end could make his NFL debut this week as a depth piece behind Tyler Conklin and Kenny Yeboah.

Zack Kuntz: Rejoins New York on practice squad
The Jets signed Kuntz to their practice squad Wednesday after he was waived by the team Tuesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
The Jets took Kuntz in the seventh round of the 2023 NFL Draft. He logged six catches for 41 yards and a touchdown in three preseason games. He'll stay with the Jets via their practice squad to start the 2023 season and await an opportunity to get called up.

Jets' Zack Kuntz: Gets first NFL TD
Kuntz caught both of his targets for 17 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 27-0 preseason win over Carolina.
Kuntz found the end zone for the first time in his young NFL career from four yards out in the fourth quarter. The 2023 seventh-round pick out of Old Dominion has enticing physical tools, with excellent speed and leaping ability in a 6-foot-7, 255-pound frame; however, he's still viewed as more of a long-term project. His most likely outcome for 2023 is spending the season on the Jets' practice squad, as Tyler Conklin, C.J. Uzomah, Jeremy Ruckert (shoulder) and Kenny Yeboah are all ahead of Kuntz on the depth chart at tight end.

Jets' Zack Kuntz: One catch in HOF game
Kuntz secured his only target for six yards during the Jets' 21-16 preseason loss to the Browns in Thursday night's Hall of Fame Game.
The rookie seventh-round pick made a minimal offensive impact as his final line implies, but it was a quiet night overall for the Jets on that side of the ball. Kuntz will continue his uphill battle for a roster spot on a relatively deep tight-end corps in a road preseason battle against the Panthers a week from Saturday.
