Off to a Sluggish Start, David Njoku Hoping to Get Going vs. Packers

Monday, September 15, 8:17 PM

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku is off to a slow start in 2025. After his four-catch, 40-yard performance in a lopsided Week 2 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, Njoku has just seven catches for 77 scoreless yards through two games. Meanwhile, fellow Cleveland tight end Harold Fannin Jr. has officially become a concern for Njoku's fantasy managers as the rookie has outproduced the veteran with 12 catches for 111 yards. Njoku is likely to bounce back, although a struggling Cleveland offense led by an ineffective Joe Flacco doesn't offer much hope for upside. Njoku will hope to get his season on track in Week 3 against a Green Bay Packers defense that has given up big games to Sam LaPorta (six catches for 79 yards) and Zach Ertz (six catches for 64 yards and a touchdown) this season. Njoku is worth a look as a low-end TE1 in fantasy thanks to the favorable matchup in Week 3.

Mike Gesicki Off Fantasy Radar for 2025

Thursday, September 18, 10:33 AM

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki has quickly lost his fantasy relevance in 2025. After a bounce-back 2024 season in which he posted his best numbers since 2021, Gesicki's role has diminished with the arrival of free-agent addition Noah Fant. The two have been splitting snaps (Gesicki 44%, Fant 37%), while blocking specialist Drew Sample continues to factor into the rotation. With Joe Burrow expected to miss most of the season, the Bengals' passing attack takes a major hit, further sinking Gesicki's outlook. Between the reduced snap share and a backup quarterback in the lineup, Gesicki should be ranked outside the top 30 fantasy tight ends and is safe to drop in most formats.
