2024 Fantasy Outlook
Gipson played sparingly through Week 8 of his rookie season. In the second half of the season, his role increased significantly. Although Gipson had just one game with more than 33 yards, it’s difficult to put the blame on him. The Jets could not have had a worse situation at quarterback in 2023. As a result, the entire passing game was inept. After Mike Williams signed with the Jets in free agency, Gipson would need to win the No. 3 role to have potential weekly fantasy value. However, if he doesn’t win the third-receiver job, Gipson may not see significant targets. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Regresses in second NFL season
Gipson finished the 2024 season with six catches for 39 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. He also rushed once for five yards, in addition to returning 33 punts for 266 yards and 17 kickoffs for 489 yards.
ANALYSIS
Gipson was a non-factor on offense and saw declines in both punt-return and kickoff-return yards compared to his rookie year despite leading the league in punts returned in 2024. The 23-year-old out of Stephen F. Austin has a decent chance of making the team in 2025 thanks to his special-teams contributions, though Gipson will likely face competition in training camp.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Pushing for WR3 role
Gipson had a strong minicamp and is making a case to open the season as the Jets' slot receiver over 2024 third-round draft pick Malachi Corley, per Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Gipson made the Jets as an undrafted free agent in 2023 primarily due to his contributions as a return man on special teams, but his role on offense grew as the season progressed, and he earned consistent playing time in the slot. Corley has been pegged as the favorite to win the slot receiver job due to his superior college production, but Gipson has excelled throughout the offseason program and appears to have taken a step forward with a year of NFL experience under his belt. Even with the team's increased depth around him, Gipson is well positioned to exceed his rookie totals of 21 catches for 229 yards on 38 targets.
