Who Should I Start? Geoff Swaim or Mike Gesicki

Cleveland Browns left tackle Jedrick Wills (knee) and tight end Geoff Swaim (concussion) did not participate in practice on Thursday. Both players were sidelined in Week 12, and it appears they could face an uphill battle to suit up against the Denver Broncos in Week 13, too. Wills has played in just five games this season and, if inactive, would be replaced on the offensive line by Germain Ifedi. Meanwhile, Swaim has appeared in eight games, catching just one pass for seven yards. The third tight end on the depth chart, he'd likely be replaced by Blake Whiteheart if inactive.

The Cincinnati Bengals re-signed tight end Mike Gesicki to a three-year deal worth $25.5 million on Saturday, a source tells NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Gesicki will make $12 million in the first year of the deal and will return to Cincy as their top pass-catching tight end. The 29-year-old broke out in his first year with the Bengals in 2024 with 65 receptions for 665 yards in 17 games, although he only found the end zone twice. The Bengals also have Tanner Hudson that they just re-signed this week, too, but Gesicki should once again function as the team's primary pass-catching TE after he was the third leading receiver last year behind receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Gesicki should at least be in consideration as a low-end TE1 in fantasy in 2025, and he'd see an even bigger boost if the Bengals end up trading Higgins this offseason.
