Conklin has been used sparingly through the first two games of the regular season, and the veteran tight end will be a healthy scratch Sunday against the team he played for from 2022 to 2024. Brock Wright and Jackson Meeks will provide depth at the position behind Sam LaPorta, and Conklin's next opportunity to play is Week 4 against the Panthers on Sunday, Oct. 4.
