Bengals Re-Sign Mike Gesicki To Three-Year Deal

Saturday, March 8, 12:32 PM

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.

Kyle Pitts "Appears Ready" for Training Camp

Sunday, July 20, 7:42 PM

According to D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts (foot) "appears ready" for training camp. He didn't participate in offseason activities due to a strain in his foot. However, it seems the injury is finally behind him. The 24-year-old finished last season with 47 receptions for 602 yards and a career-high four touchdowns. Still, fantasy managers have been disappointed by his lack of consistent production over the years. With Michael Penix Jr. under center, Pitts will have another shot to turn things around, although there's a good chance the latter's time in Atlanta could be coming to an end. With that in mind, the 2021 No. 4 overall pick has some work to do to convince managers he's worthy of a spot on fantasy rosters regardless of where he is playing moving ahead.
