Mike Gesicki

Mike Gesicki caught 3-of-4 targets for 18 yards in Week 1 against the Patriots.

Gesicki ran the most routes of anyone in the Bengals’ four tight end rotation and out-targeted Drew Sample, the only other tight end to be targeted, 4-3. The crusher for Gesicki was that he dropped a pass in the end zone as he went to the ground. While Gesicki carries the most fantasy value of any tight end on the Bengals, he simply isn’t going to be viable in fantasy leagues while playing just 35 percent of the offensive snaps. He’s merely a touchdown-dependent desperation play in Week 2 against the Chiefs on the road.
