"Christopher Herndon IV (born February 23, 1996) is an American football tight end for the New York Jets of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at the University of Miami.[1] "
Highschool
Christopher Herndon attended Norcross Highschool in Georgia. In his senior year, he had 33 catches for 543 yards and 6 touchdowns. Christopher was rated as a 3 star recruit and the 32nd best tight-end in the country by 24/7 sports. Herndon received numerous Division 1 offers but decided to get his college education at the University of Miami.
College Career
The 6 foot 4 253 pound tight end started all three years at the University of Miami. His career numbers as a Hurricane: 86 catches, 1048 yards, 7 touchdowns. In his senior year, he received second team all ACC honors. Herndon injured his mcl in the last regular season game against the University of Pittsburgh and was unable to play in the ACC championship against Clemson or in the Orange Bowl against Wisconsin. The University of Miami was unable to win either of these games without him.
NFL
Christopher Herndon IV was the 4th round selection by the New York Jets and the 107th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
In the 2018 NFL Draft the New York Jets selected Chris Herndon out of the University of Miami as their 4th round selection, 107th pick overall. With poor production at the tight end position in prior years, the New York Jets are hoping that Herndon is their guy. With the season a couple months away, Chris Herndon has already gotten himself in trouble.
Dating back to May of 2017, there have been 7 player arrests for members of the New York Jets. This has become a problem for the organization, and along with legal penalties come league disciplines such as suspension. Chris Herndon was arrested on DWI charges when he crashed his car at 4:45 am on June 2nd. No one was seriously injured in the crash. The NFL always waits for legal issues to be resolved before making any decisions to implement suspensions. It is possible that Herndon could miss the first few games of his rookie season.
Chris Herndon's page on Wikipedia was extremely limited. I found it necessary to update the page by adding information about the New York Jets Tight End. Herndon was not a highly touted prospect in college and is currently a rookie in the NFL, therefore it is not always easy to find information about him. Now, Jets fans as well as others who wish to find out about the 22 year old can locate his freshly updated page on Wikipedia.
