Mike Gesicki News
Wednesday, July 22, 9:32 AM
Across 13 games in 2025, Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki recorded 28 catches for 307 yards and two touchdowns on 42 targets. After a TE13 finish in 2024, Gesicki plummeted to TE41 last season. Entering 2026, Gesicki could play a larger role in the Bengals' offense after the offseason departure of former Cincinnati tight end Noah Fant. However, the 30-year-old's production outlook will likely remain tied to the health of Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins, as Gesicki's best moments in Cincinnati have often come when Higgins is sidelined by injury. As long as Higgins and fellow superstar Bengals wideout Ja'Marr Chase are on the field, Gesicki is unlikely to see enough target volume to provide fantasy-relevant production. Still, the veteran tight end could remain a low-cost handcuff option for deep-league dynasty managers to roster for the upcoming season.

Tyler Warren News
Monday, July 27, 12:37 PM
Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren was treated like a veteran from the jump. He drew 112 targets, catching 76 passes for 817 yards and four touchdowns while playing 899 offensive snaps. Warren also scored once on the ground and set the franchise rookie record for receiving yards by a tight end. There is room for more. Michael Pittman Jr. took 111 targets with him to Pittsburgh, and Daniel Jones is set to open camp as a full participant after recovering from a torn Achilles. Josh Downs and Alec Pierce will remain heavily involved, so the vacated work will not all funnel to Warren. It does not have to. He led Indianapolis in targets last season and already finished among the top five fantasy tight ends despite only four receiving scores. RotoBaller ranks Warren TE4 for 2026. With Jones healthy and one of the league's strongest target profiles at the position, Warren has a real path to finishing as the overall TE1.
