The Facts: According to ESPN.com's Rich Cimini, Amaro, returning from shoulder surgery, is entering a make-or-break season.
Diehards Line:
Yes. We've heard this before. And it's still true. As Cimini suggested, the team essentially played without a tight end on passing downs last season, which explains why they led the league in four-receiver packages. How bad was it? Rob Gronkowski had more catches in one game (11, against the Jets) than the Jets' tight ends compiled for the season (eight). Amaro was a record-setting receiver in college, but he has yet to demonstrate that ability on the pro level. It's time.
