Cumberland (concussion) did not travel with the Jets to London, where the team plays the Dolphins on Sunday.
With the Jets having waived nose tackle Deon Simon after practice Wednesday, we'd expect the team to add tight end depth to the roster in advance of Sunday's contest.

Coach Todd Bowles doesn't think that Cumberland (concussion) will play Sunday against the Dolphins.
Cumberland could be trending toward an official doubtful or out designation later in the week, with Kellen Davis currently the team's only healthy tight end. Given that reality, it wouldn't surprise us if the Jets signed another tight end or promoted Wes Saxton from their practice squad.

Cumberland is going through concussion protocol after suffering a head injury Sunday against the Eagles, the New York Daily News reports.
Cumberland has been a fairly weak fantasy option so far this season, and while a potential absence will hurt the Jets ahead of this Sunday's game against the Dolphins in London, not many fantasy rosters should be affected.

Cumberland suffered a head injury during Sunday's game against the Eagles and did not return.
Cumberland caught two passes on four targets for 10 yards before departing, and given the way quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has distributed his pass attempts through three games this season, it seems unlikely Cumberland is coming up on a fantasy breakout.

Cumberland did not record any statistics Saturday against the Giants.
Cumberland is expected to serve at the lead tight end for the Jets this year. Although he may not see a ton of targets, he's often very effective as a red zone receiver.

Cumberland caught one of his two targets for eight yards Friday against the Falcons.
Cumberland saw a number of snaps in which he was lined up as a slot receiver, so it's possible that he may not be solely used as a blocking tight end during the season. However, it's unlikely he'll see a high volume of targets during the regular season.
Tue Aug 11 201517:22Cumberland listed as starting tight end Tuesday on Jets' depth c...
Cumberland was listed as the starting tight end Tuesday on the Jets' depth chart.
Cumberland has played in 46 of 48 Jets' games over the past three seasons, and averaged 27 receptions, 346 yards and three touchdowns. Although he may not be a major factor in the passing game, it appears that he has a good chance to see plenty of playing time often this year.
Sun Jan 25 201517:40Cumberland finished 2014 with 23 catches for 247 yards
Cumberland finished 2014 with 23 catches for 247 yards. He was targeted 47 times.
Two of Cumberland's touchdowns came long after he was a fantasy write-off: Week 16 and 17. He's yet to top 400 yards in any of his five seasons, and now Jace Amaro is around to complicate things.

Cumberland had three catches on five targets for 43 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's loss to the Patriots.
Cumberland's score was the Jets' only touchdown of the day, as quarterback Geno Smith continues to struggle. It was Cumberland's second touchdown this season, with both coincidentally coming against the Patriots. Up next is a Week 17 matchup against the Dolphins, who are allowing the third-fewest passing yards per game this season.

Cumberland was targeted twice, both incompletions, in Sunday's loss at Kansas City.
The Jets didn't get their tight ends going in this game - Jace Amaro didn't even draw a target. Meanwhile, the team's two primary wide receivers, Percy Harvin and Eric Decker, combined for 20 catches. Cumberland and Amaro are impossible to trust entering Week 10's game against Pittsburgh.

Cumberland caught 3-of-4 targets for 50 yards and a touchdown in Thursdya's 27-25 loss to the Patriots.
Cumberland turned in his finest statistical performance of the season, and it may stand as such at the end of the year. He'll likely keep starting over Jace Amaro for at least a couple more weeks, but it won't be all that surprising if the rookie eventually takes over. For now, both tight ends will be involved in the offense, with Amaro largely focused on receiving while Cumberland does a bit more work as an in-line blocker.

If you want to have a Jets tight end in your fantasy life, we suggest Jace Amaro.

Cumberland had three catches for 18 yards on six targets in Monday's 27-19 loss to the Bears.
Meanwhile, rookie TE Jace Amaro caught 3-of-4 targets for 54 yards, albeit with an ugly third-down drop mixed in. Cumberland figures to hold on to the starting job, but both players should have roles in the offense, with neither a strong option outside of very deep leagues.
Mon Sep 15 201417:32Cumberland finished with one catch for 14 yards in Sunday's loss...
Cumberland finished with one catch for 14 yards in Sunday's loss at Green Bay. He was targeted twice.
Cumberland is getting more work than Jace Amaro these days, not that you want either tight end on a standard roster. Chicago is the Week 3 matchup.

Cumberland (non-injury) is active for Sunday's contest at Green Bay, Seth Walder of the New York Daily News reports.
Cumberland was absent from practice Wednesday but proceeded to be a full participant both Thursday and Friday. As a result, he'll look to build upong a four-catch, 50-yard performance in the season opener against the Raiders.

Cumberland caught four passes for 50 yards in Sunday's victory over Oakland.
A handy output on five targets; meanwhile, rookie TE Jace Amaro was limited to two catches for seven yards (four targets). Neither Jets tight end is screaming to fantasy owners, but if you have to use one right now, Cumberland deserves the call.
Fri Sep 5 201412:32Cumberland slated to start at tight end for Jets on Sunday again...
Cumberland is slated to start at tight end for the Jets on Sunday against the Raiders, ESPN.com reports.
Confirmation of that assignment was relayed by rookie TE Jace Amaro, who could potentially overtake Cumberland as the season progresses. For now, though, Cumberland -- who is evidently past the Achilles injury he dealt with in the preseason -- remains atop the team's depth chart at the position, which gives him modest value out of the gate in deeper formats.
Wed Sep 3 201420:29Cumberland (Achilles) not listed on Jets' Wednesday practice par...
Cumberland (Achilles) is not listed on the Jets' Wednesday practice participation/injury report, the team's official site reports.
Cumberland looks good to go heading into Week 1's game against the Raiders, though the team's addition of rookie Jace Amaro suggests a brewing time-share that figures to hamper Cumberland's fantasy upside.
