Sadiq won't return to Sunday's game versus the Browns due to a concussion.
Prior to having a concussion check in Week 5, Sadiq had two catches (on three targets) for three yards and lost a fumble. Mason Taylor should serve as the Jets' primary tight end for the rest of Sunday's contest, though Jeremy Ruckert may be more involved in the passing game;.
Sadiq is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Browns after exiting in the third quarter to be evaluated for a head injury.
The Jets will presumably put Sadiq through concussion tests before determining whether he's fit to return to the game. Prior to exiting the contest, Sadiq recorded two catches for three yards on three targets and also lost a fumble.
Sadiq (back) didn't catch any of his four targets in Sunday's 23-12 loss to the Bears.
Sadiq played through a questionable tag and tied Garrett Wilson for the team lead in targets, but the rookie first-round pick failed to record a catch as Geno Smith completed only eight passes. The Jets' banged-up offense will try to bounce back when they return home for Week 5 against the Browns. Sadiq had 105 receiving yards and a touchdown in Week 3 against the Lions but has recorded only 38 receiving yards across the other three outings of his young NFL career.
Everyone sharing the ball with Kenyon, most valuable first.
Above the line the plan was to throw; below it, to run.
Sadiq (back) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Bears.
A back injury led to Sadiq being limited at practice from Wednesday through Friday, but it will not prevent him from suiting up for Week 4. It's unclear how close Sadiq is to 100 percent, but he is coming off a game in which he racked up seven receptions, 105 yards and a score on eight targets, and he could be busy again with fellow pass catchers Adonai Mitchell (finger), Mason Taylor (thumb) and Omar Cooper (ankle) all unavailable Sunday.
Sadiq was limited at Wednesday's practice due to a back injury.
Meanwhile, fellow TE Jeremy Ruckert (knee) also was limited, while Mason Taylor (thumb) didn't practice. In Taylor's absence this past Sunday at Detroit, Sadiq, a rookie first-round pick, broke out with seven catches (on eight targets) for 105 yards and one touchdown. Another hefty workload could be on tap for Sadiq in Week 5 at Chicago if Taylor remains sidelined and Ruckert also is less than 100 percent. First, though, the statuses of the three players will continue to be watched to get a sense of the overall situation.
Sadiq (undisclosed) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
It's unclear if Sadiq suffered an injury last Sunday against Detroit or if this is related to his offseason hernia surgery. Coming off a big Week 3 in which he posted a 7-105-1 receiving line on eight targets versus the Lions, Sadiq is poised for a significant pass-catching role Sunday against the Bears as long as he's healthy.
Sadiq caught seven of eight passes for 105 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Lions.

Sadiq became the second-youngest player in Jets history to reach 100 receiving yards in a game during New York's Week 3 loss to the Lions, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Sadiq took advantage of added opportunities in the Jets' banged-up offense, as the rookie first-round pick caught seven of eight targets for 105 yards and a touchdown in his third NFL game. Only teammate Breece Hall, who exited in the fourth quarter of Sunday's loss due to a thigh injury, was younger when posting a 100-yard receiving game for the Jets. Hall was 21 years and 131 days old when he first reached 100 receiving yards in a game, while Sadiq is 21 years and 207 days old.
