Noah Fant Not Startable Despite Gesicki Injury

Thursday, October 16, 10:53 AM

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Noah Fant could see an uptick in usage following the injury to Mike Gesicki. In his first season with the Bengals, Fant has caught 16 of 18 targets for 107 yards and a touchdown through five games but has been held back by the team's tight end committee, playing only 35% of the offensive snaps. With Gesicki now on injured reserve, Fant's snap share should increase, though Tanner Hudson may also see expanded involvement as well. The Week 7 matchup is an intriguing one, as the Pittsburgh Steelers have surrendered the fourth-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this season, including a breakout performance by rookie Harold Fannin Jr. in Week 6. While Fant remains too risky to start this week, he's a name to monitor moving forward if his role grows within the Bengals offense.
