Who Should I Start? Mike Gesicki or Harold Fannin Jr.

Saturday, December 13, 1:40 PM

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki is coming off his best game of the 2025 campaign, catching all six targets for 86 yards. He also found the end zone for the first time this season. Naturally, his stock is much higher after that performance. It increased even more once Tee Higgins (concussion) was ruled out. That means extra targets will be up for grabs in the Week 15 rematch with the Ravens. While Ja'Marr Chase and Chase Brown are the favorites to see the most attention from Joe Burrow, that's not to say Gesicki won't be more involved (and productive) than usual. As a result, the veteran can be utilized for streaming purposes in any fantasy format on Sunday versus Baltimore in a contest that is projected to feature plenty of offense from both sides.

When asked about tight end Harold Fannin Jr.'s involvement in the game plan during the team's 31-3 loss to the Bears, Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator Tommy Rees gave the rookie a vote of confidence. "The Harold Fannin well is a good one to go to," Rees replied when asked about the 21-year-old's spike in targets. In fact, Fannin accounted for a whopping 40% of quarterback Shedeur Sanders' looks in their Week 15 defeat and has commanded at least 11 in consecutive contests. The third-round pick of April's draft has been on the field for at least 90% of Cleveland's offensive snaps across the past four weeks, and is on the rise with an elevated opportunity share since teammate David Njoku (knee) went down with injury.
