Jets tight end Jeremy Ruckert has agreed to a contract extension with the New York Jets, locking up the 25-year-old through the 2027 season.  The deal is a two-year extension worth roughly $10 million, with incentives that could push the total to $11 million.

Ruckert has quietly put together the best season of his NFL career in 2025, posting career highs in receptions with 20, receiving yards, and his first touchdown.  He is primarily used in 12 or 13 personals, and a key piece to their run game, since he is the Jets best blocking tight end.

Overall, Ruckert’s new contract ensures stability and depth at tight end for the Jets but isn’t a big boost for his fantasy ceiling unless he sees increase in targets in 2026.
