Dustin Keller (ankle) will be held out of practice again on Friday. Keller is considered a "long shot" to suit up for Monday's game against the Titans. He can dropped in 12- and 14-team fantasy leagues.

Dustin Keller (ankle) will not practice Thursday. Keller sustained what was originally reported as a high-ankle sprain in Week 13. He's questionable at best for Monday's game against the Titans. Backup Jeff Cumberland had one catch for 37 yards in last week's win at Jacksonville.

Dustin Keller (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 14 versus the Jaguars. Keller was listed as doubtful on Friday after not practicing at all during the week. Jeff Cumberland will get the start. Keller, in a contract year, has played in just eight games this season.

Dustin Keller (ankle) missed another practice Friday and is listed as doubtful for Week 14 against the Jaguars. Jeff Cumberland will stand in as the Jets' starting tight end, further depleting perhaps the league's weakest skill-position player corps. Keller didn't practice at all this week. Rex Ryan says he doesn't have a high ankle sprain.

Dustin Keller (ankle) will not practice Thursday. Keller's sprain was severe enough to get the "high" label in some reports. He appears very unlikely to play in Sunday's game against the Jags, leaving Jeff Cumberland as the Jets' starting tight end.

Dustin Keller (ankle) was absent from Wednesday's practice. The Jets are insisting Keller doesn't have a high-ankle sprain, but this puts him on track to miss Week 14. However, a return to practice any time in the next 48 hours would change that. For now, owners need to plan on starting a different low-end TE1 for the first week of the fantasy playoffs.

Jets coach Rex Ryan told reporters Monday that Dustin Keller does not have a high ankle sprain. Both the New York Daily News and ESPN New York reported Sunday that Keller's left ankle sprain was of the high variety. Ryan, however, claims the sprain is routine in nature. "So that's good," Ryan said. "We'll know about him later. He has some swelling there." Keller's status for Week 14 is uncertain.

The New York Daily News reports Dustin Keller suffered a high left ankle sprain in Sunday's Week 13 win over Arizona. With only four games left, the rest of Keller's season is in danger. The Jets will turn to Jeff Cumberland as their top tight end moving forward. Cumberland has 21 catches for 233 yards and two touchdowns in the season. Keller has battled through a tumultuous, injury-prone contract year. If his year is over, Keller may have played his final snap in a Jets uniform.

Dustin Keller exited Sunday's Week 13 game with a second-quarter injury to his left leg. Beat writer Manish Mehta believes Keller injured his left foot. He'll undergo X-rays at halftime. Keller had 17 yards on two first-half receptions.

Dustin Keller caught five passes for 64 yards and a touchdown in Thursday night's Week 12 loss to the Patriots. After posting back-to-back duds in Weeks 10 and 11, Keller was targeted seven times on the night and visited the end zone in the fourth quarter. The tight end also had another scoring opportunity earlier in the contest, but Patriots CB Kyle Arrington made a nice play to knock the ball away in the end zone. There's no question that Keller is a top-two option in the Jets' passing game, but he'll be no more than a middling TE2 against a stout Arizona defense that covers the position well.
