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.

Dolphins Hosting Noah Fant on a Visit

Monday, July 28, 12:31 PM

The Miami Dolphins are hosting free-agent tight end Noah Fant on a visit on Monday, sources told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Fant is making the rounds after being released by the Seattle Seahawks at the start of training camp, as he's already visited with the Cincinnati Bengals and New Orleans Saints. He continues to draw significant interest on the open market and should join a new team soon. The Dolphins recently traded Jonnu Smith to the Pittsburgh Steelers and signed Darren Waller after he came out of retirement, but they would certainly like to have more depth behind Waller for the 2025 season. Wherever Fant winds up, he's not going to be immediately plugged in as the no-doubt, top pass-catching option at the position, so he will go undrafted in the vast majority of fantasy leagues. The 27-year-old former first-rounder didn't crack 500 yards in any of his three seasons in Seattle.
