Who Should I Start? Mike Gesicki or K.J. Osborn

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki made his return from a stint on the Injured Reserve list for the Week 12 loss to the New England Patriots. While he didn't do much for fantasy managers, he didn't play horribly, finishing with four grabs for 35 yards. Of course, Ja'Marr Chase wasn't available for that one due to suspension. However, with Tee Higgins (concussion) sidelined, there should be more targets up for grabs from quarterback Joe Burrow (toe), who will make his return after being sidelined since the Week 2 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Granted, the expectation is for Burrow and Chase to connect often. However, Gesicki's ceiling is still slightly higher than usual on Thanksgiving Night without Higgins in the lineup, giving him some credibility for those in desperate need of a tight end in Week 13.

The Washington Commanders are re-signing veteran wide receiver K.J. Osborn, according to team reporter John Keim. The 27-year-old was claimed off waivers by Washington in November following his release by the New England Patriots and appeared in one game for the Commanders. The 2020 fifth-round pick out of Miami by the Minnesota Vikings has collected 165 receptions for 1,902 yards and 16 touchdowns in 66 career games. Washington also re-signed wideout Noah Brown and traded for Pro Bowler Deebo Samuel Sr. this offseason, so it's tough to expect Osborn to have any fantasy value in 2025.
