  • Catches short TD in Week 8

    Gipson caught his only target for a one-yard touchdown in Sunday's 25-22 loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Two fumbles go out of bounds

    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.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Remains limited to special teams

    Gipson wasn't targeted and had one punt return for eight yards in Monday's 23-20 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Gipson remains almost exclusively limited to special teams duties. Finding snaps for the undersized receiver will be even harder moving forward, as the Jets are finalizing a trade for wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) ahead of Sunday's road game against the Steelers.

  • No targets in London loss

    Gipson wasn't targeted in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Vikings and returned two punts for 31 yards.

    Analysis: Aaron Rodgers threw the ball 54 times, but none of those passes were directed at Gipson, as the Jets utilized Garrett Wilson, Allen Lazard and Mike Williams in three-receiver sets. Gipson contributed to the Jets' comeback bid with a 31-yard punt return, which helped set up New York's first touchdown late in the first half. He's a good special teams player but doesn't have much of a role on offense at the moment.

  • Catches only one of four targets

    Gipson caught one of four targets for six yards while adding two kickoff returns for 50 yards and five punt returns for 31 yards in Sunday's 10-9 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: Gipson got plenty of special-teams opportunities as offense was hard to come by in rainy conditions at MetLife Stadium, but he had a forgettable afternoon on offense. The second-year pro set a season high in targets, but he didn't exactly earn Aaron Rodgers' trust, registering a drop and then failing to get his head around on a pivotal third-down pass late in the game.

  • Makes first two catches of 2024

    Gipson caught both of his targets for 16 yards and had four punt returns for 27 yards in Thursday's 24-3 win over the Patriots.

    Analysis: Gipson was one of eight Jets to catch multiple passes in Thursday's win, as Aaron Rodgers had his best game as a Jet with 281 passing yards and two touchdowns. While Gipson's shiftiness offers a path to playing time in the slot and as a gadget piece, most of his contributions have come on special teams, with Garrett Wilson, Mike Williams and Allen Lazard all well ahead of the second-year pro in the team's wide receiver pecking order.

  • No targets again

    Gipson wasn't targeted in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans. He had two kickoff returns for 57 yards and three punt returns for 35 yards.

    Analysis: Gipson's snap share on offense plummeted from 59 to 11 percent, corresponding with an increase from 18 to 65 percent for Mike Williams. As long as Williams, Garrett Wilson and Allen Lazard are healthy, those three are poised to operate in the majority of three-receiver sets, leaving Gipson relegated primarily to a special-teams role.

  • Blanked on Monday

    Gipson wasn't targeted in Monday's 32-19 loss to the 49ers, but he had three kickoff returns for 77 yards and a four-yard punt return.

    Analysis: Gipson was the intended receiver of a Tyrod Taylor pass on a two-point conversion in the final minute, but that play doesn't go down in the books as an official target. The slot receiver actually played 30 snaps on offense compared to just nine for Mike Williams and one for Malachi Corley. Once Williams is up to speed, he'll likely join Garrett Wilson and Allen Lazard in three-receiver sets, but Gipson's usage suggests the second-year pro is capable of providing some value on offense early in…read more

  • Back on practice field

    Gipson (leg) returned to practice Tuesday, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Gipson had been sidelined since the late July with an undisclosed leg injury, making his return a notable development for the Jets' offense. In addition to profiling as New York's top return man, especially since the surprise retirement of Tarik Cohen, Gipson figures to rotate alongside Allen Lazard and Malachi Corley in the No. 3 wide receiver role behind Garrett Wilson and Mike Williams (knee), the latter of whom remains on the active/PUP list.

  • Expected to miss a few weeks

    Coach Robert Saleh said Friday that Gipson (leg) suffered an injury at practice Thursday and is expected to miss a week or two, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Gipson walked off the practice field with a notable limp, per Brian Costello of the New York Post, but the specifics of his leg injury remain undisclosed. As a rookie last season, Gipson suited up for all 17 games and worked as the Jets' primary kick and punt returner, but he now faces competition from Tarik Cohen and Isaiah Davis.

  • Competition as primary returner

    Gipson is expected to have competition as New York's primary return specialist heading into the 2024 season, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Gipson operated as the Jets' kick returner and punt returner for the entirety of the 2023 season, but with the team signing running back Tarik Cohen on Wednesday, Gipson may not be a shoo-in for the role again in 2024. Head coach Robert Saleh said Wednesday that Gipson will get "first dibs," but the returning job is an "open competition."

  • Finishes first year with 21 catches

    Gispon caught one of five targets for four yards in Sunday's 17-3 win over the Patriots. He finishes the season with 21 catches for 229 yards on 38 targets.

    Analysis: Gipson didn't score a receiving touchdown in his rookie season, but he posted a rushing score and a punt return touchdown. He held down the punt and kick returner roles for the entire season -- posting 319 punt return yards and 511 kickoff return yards -- and saw more involvement on offense in the second half of the campaign. The 5-foot-9 Gipson likely profiles as more of a depth contributor than a consistent starter at wide receiver, but a spot on the 53-man roster will be his to lose next…read more

  • Posts 153 all-purpose yards in loss

    Gipson secured four of seven targets for 33 yards, rushed once for eight yards, ran back three kickoffs for 82 yards and returned two punts for 30 yards in the Jets' 37-20 loss to the Browns on Thursday night.

    Analysis: Gipson had a particularly busy night in defeat, with both his reception and receiving yardage totals serving as the second highest of his young career. The rookie's target tally also qualified as a new high-water mark, and he's now logged one rush attempt in four of his last five games. Gipson could be a candidate for extended playing time in the Week 18 road finale against the Patriots on Jan. 7, and it's possible he'll have Zach Wilson (concussion) back under center for that contest.

  • One catch, one carry in win

    Gipson caught one of two targets for one yard and added a 16-yard run in Sunday's 30-28 win over the Commanders.

    Analysis: Gipson also returned three kickoffs for 82 yards and added a nine-yard punt return. The undrafted rookie out of Stephen F. Austin has worked as a slot receiver and gadget player on offense in the second half of the season while maintaining his role as the return man on special teams. Gipson has logged multiple touches in each of the last five games, but he's finished with more than three touches only once this season.

  • Six targets in Week 15 loss

    Gipson caught two of six targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 30-0 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Gipson tied Garrett Wilson for the team lead in receiving yards and came one target shy of Tyler Conklin's team-leading total as the entire Jets offense struggled. After posting a career-high 77 receiving yards in Week 13 and scoring his first offensive touchdown in Week 14, Gipson maintained a prominent role against the Dolphins despite his lack of success on the stat sheet, which bodes well for his potential involvement in Week 16 against the Commanders. It remains to be seen whether Zach…read more

  • Scores rushing TD in Week 14 win

    Gipson caught his only target for three yards and rushed once for nine yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Texans.

    Analysis: Gipson scored his first offensive touchdown in the NFL on a nine-yard run in the third quarter, doubling New York's lead to 14-0. He also had three punt returns for 17 yards. Whether it's as a traditional slot receiver or a gadget player, Gipson has carved out consistent playing time in New York's offense, albeit with only a few touches per game.

  • Career-high 77 receiving yards

    Gipson caught five of six targets for 77 yards in Sunday's 13-8 loss to the Falcons. He also rushed once for one yard, returned one kickoff for 25 yards and totaled 45 yards on four punt returns.

    Analysis: Gipson's 77 receiving yards were the most by a Jets player other than Garrett Wilson this season. He set up a second-quarter field goal with a 36-yard catch on a flea flicker and added a 25-yard catch in the fourth quarter as the Jets tried to mount a comeback. The first catch came on a Tim Boyle pass, while the latter was thrown by Trevor Siemian after Boyle was benched. Despite New York's unenviable quarterback situation, Gipson's role in the offense is growing heading into a Week 14 home…read more

  • Two catches in Week 12

    Gipson caught both of his targets for 15 yards in Friday's 34-13 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Gipson didn't see a change in role due to Allen Lazard (coach's decision) being benched, as fellow undrafted rookie Jason Brownlee took over Lazard's usual role on the outside while Gipson remained in the slot. Gipson also had one kickoff return for 28 yards.

  • Early fumble sets tone in loss

    Gipson caught one of two targets for seven yards in Sunday's 32-6 loss to the Bills. He also returned four kickoffs for 76 yards and lost a fumble.

    Analysis: The last time these two AFC East rivals faced off, Gipson ended the game with a punt return touchdown in overtime in his NFL debut. His first return opportunity Sunday was far less successful, as Gipson fumbled on the opening kickoff. That miscue set the tone for a disastrous all-around performance from the Jets, who suffered a third consecutive loss to fall to 4-6.

  • Career-high three Week 10 targets

    Gipson caught one of three targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 16-12 loss to the Raiders. He also returned one kickoff for 14 yards and had one punt return for five yards.

    Analysis: For the second consecutive game, Gipson finished second among the Jets' wide receivers in receiving yards behind Garrett Wilson. The undrafted rookie out of Stephen F. Austin has flashed some big-play ability, but he hasn't been targeted frequently enough to produce consistently on offense, as Gipson's three targets Sunday marked a new career high.

  • Career-high receiving total Monday

    Gipson caught both of his targets for 32 yards in Monday's 27-6 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: Not only were Gipson's 32 receiving yards a career high, they marked the highest total in a game this season by a Jets wide receiver not named Garrett Wilson or Allen Lazard. That stat is more of an indictment on the state of New York's passing game than a compliment to Gipson, but the dearth of quality alternatives at least creates an opportunity for the rookie to carve out a larger role moving forward. Gipson also returned three punts for eight yards in Monday's loss.

  • Cleared for Monday

    Gipson (ankle) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's contest against the Chargers, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Gipson hasn't been a featured member of the team's passing attack, but that could change depending on the status of Allen Lazard, who showed up on the final injury report with a knee injury and is currently listed as questionable. Gipson would slot in as the team's No. 3 target behind Garrett Wilson and Randall Cobb in the event Lazard does not play.

  • Remains limited Friday

    Gipson (ankle) remained limited at Friday's practice, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Gipson has played just 55 offensive snaps all season, registering four carries for 34 yards and one four-yard catch on two targets. He mainly plays special teams as the Jets' dynamic returner.

  • One carry, one target in Week 8

    Gipson rushed once for three yards and didn't catch his lone target in Sunday's 13-10 overtime win over the Giants.

    Analysis: Gipson was shaken up at the end of his three-yard run so the Jets sent out D.J. Reed as their returner on the next of Jamie Gillan's 13 punts while Gipson recovered, but Gipson managed to return to the game. The rookie return man finished with three punt returns for 20 yards and one kickoff return for 22 yards in a game that featured 24 combined punts between the two teams.

  • Gets chunk gain on only touch

    Gipson (ankle) rushed once for 18 yards in Sunday's 20-14 win over the Eagles.

    Analysis: Gipson suited up after hurting his ankle in practice during the week. The electric return man didn't get a chance to make any returns on special teams, perhaps due to the ankle injury, but Gipson looked spry on his only offensive touch, which produced the longest rushing play for either team.

  • Ready to go for Week 6

    Gipson (ankle) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Eagles.

    Analysis: Gipson was listed as questionable after picking up an ankle injury late in Week 6 prep, but he'll still be available Sunday. The undrafted rookie plays primarily on special teams, handling kick- and punt-return duties, but his offensive snaps have increased in each of the past two weeks.

  • Questionable for Week 6

    Gipson (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Gipson was limited by the ankle injury Friday after previously avoiding the injury report. If the rookie return man can't go, veteran receiver Mecole Hardman could see his role grow on special teams, and possibly on offense as well.

  • No touches on offense in Week 5

    Gipson wasn't targeted in Sunday's 31-21 win over the Broncos. He had one kickoff return for 20 yards, two punt returns for 14 yards and committed two fumbles, losing one.

    Analysis: After getting involved with one catch and two rushing attempts in Week 4, Gipson didn't register a touch on offense in Week 5. He also muffed a punt in the third quarter to set the Broncos up in Jets territory, but New York overcame the rookie's miscue and notched its second win of the season.

  • Earning role on offense

    Gipson caught his only target for four yards and rushed twice for 13 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Gipson earned the first three touches on offense of his NFL career. The rookie out of Stephen F. Austin has shown impressive elusiveness as a return man on special teams, so the Jets are starting to draw up some plays to get Gipson the ball in space on offense as well. He added a 22-yard kickoff return and 11-yard punt return in the SNF loss.

  • No targets through two games

    Gipson wasn't targeted in Sunday's 30-10 loss to the Cowboys. He had one punt return for seven yards.

    Analysis: Gipson scored the game-winning punt return touchdown in overtime in his NFL debut, but the electric return man was much quieter in his second NFL game. The rookie receiver has yet to see a target on offense.

  • Overtime hero in NFL debut

    Gipson had two punt returns for 66 yards and a touchdown and two kickoff returns for 46 yards in Monday's 22-16 overtime win over the Bills.

    Analysis: Gipson won the game with a 65-yard punt return touchdown in overtime. He got free down the left sideline, then patiently waited for blockers to clear the way before working his way into the end zone to send the MetLife Stadium crowd into a frenzy. It was an unforgettable moment for the undrafted wide receiver out of Stephen F. Austin, who was making his NFL debut. Gipson doesn't have much of a role on offense, but he could be an asset in formats that reward return yardage.

  • Bolsters chances of making team

    Gipson caught seven of 10 targets for 79 yards in Saturday's 32-24 preseason win over the Giants. He also had a 20-yard punt return.

    Analysis: The Jets gave Gipson plenty of opportunities to showcase his skills in the preseason finale, and the undrafted rookie stepped up, which should help his chances of sticking around after Tuesday's final cuts. Gipson played with the second-team offense Saturday, and his punt return could have gone for a touchdown if he didn't just barely step out of bounds. His ability to contribute in the return game on special teams could help Gipson claim a roster spot on a wide receiver depth chart that…read more

  • Mixed bag in debut

    Gipson failed to catch either of his two targets in Thursday's 21-16 preseason loss to Cleveland. He added one kickoff return for 45 yards and a punt return for no gain.

    Analysis: Gipson has been a standout player in camp with the Jets, and his speed could earn the undrafted rookie a role as a gadget player. He muffed his punt return and had a foot out of bounds by the time he regathered the ball, but Gipson made up for that mistake with an electric 45-yard kickoff return in the final minute of the first half to set up a field goal. Gipson will look to leave a larger impression on offense in the next preseason game, which will be Aug. 12 in Carolina.
