Mike Gesicki Fantasy Stats

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki had his best game of the season in Week 14, hauling in all six targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in the 39-34 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Gesicki was having a career-worst season prior to his Week 14 explosion, averaging just 3.2 PPR points per game, ranking as the TE51, trailing the likes of Daniel Bellinger and Jackson Hawes. His snap count remains low, playing just 39% of the snaps in Week 14, behind both Noah Fant (43%) and Drew Sample (46%). If he wants to become a starting option for fantasy managers, he needs to play more snaps; otherwise, he'll be incredibly volatile. His role will be one to watch this week, as the Bengals host the division rival Baltimore Ravens in a must-win game in Week 15.

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki had his best game of the season in Week 14 against the Buffalo Bills, recording six catches for 82 yards and a touchdown on six targets. The 30-year-old's involvement in the Cincinnati passing game has been trending up in recent weeks, as he's earned 16 targets across his last three games played. Gesicki could move even further up the pecking order in Week 15 against the Baltimore Ravens with Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (concussion) back in concussion protocol. Higgins played in Week 14 after missing Week 13 due to a head injury, but he re-entered the league's concussion protocol on Monday. If Higgins is sidelined, Gesicki could be a solid streaming option for fantasy managers at the tight end position in Week 15. He should be a waiver-wire target in all leagues with 14 or more teams.

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki scored his first touchdown of the season while also recording a season high in receptions and receiving yards, hauling in all six of his targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills. Gesicki hasn't played a big role in Cincinnati's offense this season, but he has been surging recently and tied receiver Tee Higgins for the team lead in receptions in Sunday's shootout with the Bills in the snow. The 30-year-old has totaled 12 receptions for 140 yards and a touchdown on 16 targets over the past three games. In Cincinnati's high-volume passing offense with quarterback Joe Burrow back in the fold, Gesicki could be in for a productive end to the season as the No. 3 option behind Higgins and Ja'Marr Chase.

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki has six catches on 10 targets for 54 yards and no touchdowns in his first two games back from Injured Reserve. Gesicki caught four of six targets for a season-high 35 yards in his first game back in the Week 12 loss to the New England Patriots, and he followed that up with a two-catch, 19-yard game on Thanksgiving Day last Thursday in the win over the Baltimore Ravens. Fellow tight ends Tanner Hudson, Drew Sample, and Noah Fant all had one catch apiece, combining for 31 receiving yards. The 30-year-old Gesicki has yet to find the end zone in eight games played in 2025 in his second year in Cincy, and it's probably going to be difficult for him to produce every week with Hudson, Sample, and Fant all involved. That will especially be the case whenever receiver Tee Higgins returns from a concussion. Heading into Week 14 against the Bills, Gesicki should be considered a low-end TE2/high-end TE3 in fantasy.

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.

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki returned from a five-week absence to record season-highs in targets, receptions, and yards in a Week 12 loss to the Patriots. While his final stat line of four receptions for 35 yards was only good enough for TE16 on the week, it was clear early on Sunday that the Bengals had a plan to feature their athletic tight end in a game that All-Pro receiver Ja'Marr Chase missed due to suspension. Heading into a Week 13 Thanksgiving matchup with the Ravens, receiver Tee Higgins (concussion) has already been ruled out, giving Gesicki another opportunity for an increased workload. With quarterback Joe Burrow (toe) in line to return this week, it should also be noted that Gesicki's three redzone targets in Burrow's two starts this year are tied with Chase for the team lead. Gesicki is RotoBaller's TE19 this Week, but he offers enough upside to make him a matchup-dependent streaming candidate.

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki (pectoral) practiced in full all week and was activated from the Injured Reserve list heading into Sunday's meeting with the New England Patriots. The 30-year-old wasn't having a productive season before going down with an injury, catching only eight passes (16 targets) for 61 yards while failing to find the end zone. With that said, Ja'Marr Chase won't be available versus the Pats in order to serve a one-game suspension, meaning Gesicki's return comes at a perfect time. The veteran is reportedly in line for "a big role." Still, fantasy managers have heard this about other players countless times over the years, so he shouldn't be viewed as anything more than a risky, high-upside streaming option, considering his production can go in either direction in the matchup with a tough Patriots defense. It's also somewhat important to remember that Noah Fant has scored in two of his last four appearances.

The Cincinnati Bengals have activated tight end Mike Gesicki (pectoral) from Injured Reserve ahead of their Week 12 matchup against the New England Patriots, according to Kelsey Conway of the Cincinnati Enquirer. Conway reports that Gesicki "will play a big role" against New England with Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase sidelined due to suspension. Gesicki has been out since Week 6 due to a pectoral injury. In six games before getting hurt, the 30-year-old tight end recorded eight catches for 61 yards on 16 targets. While his pre-injury production is underwhelming, Gesicki has had big games in previous seasons when the Bengals are missing wide receivers. Still, there's no guarantee that Gesicki will even supplant Noah Fant as Cincinnati's top pass-catching tight end. Gesicki remains tough for fantasy managers to trust in Week 12.

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki (pectoral), who remains on Injured Reserve due to a pectoral injury, had his 21-day practice window opened on Wednesday, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. It's probably unlikely, but Gesicki will now be eligible to return this weekend when the team takes on the visiting New England Patriots. The 30-year-old tight end could have a chance to supplant Noah Fant as the team's top pass-catching tight end once he's fully recovered, which means he's a name to watch in fantasy leagues as we approach the playoffs. Gesicki has not played since getting hurt in Week 6. Before his pectoral injury, he had caught eight of his 16 targets for 61 yards and no touchdowns in six games. In two-TE fantasy leagues, Gesicki is worth stashing now if he's available on the waiver wire.

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki (pectoral) has been making positive progress in his recovery from a pectoral injury suffered in Week 6 against the Green Bay Packers. Gesicki was placed on Injured Reserve following that game and is now entering the fourth game he was required to miss on IR, but should have a good chance of returning in Week 12 versus the Patriots. The 30-year-old was having a quiet start to the year before going down, catching eight of 16 targets for 61 yards in six games. Noah Fant has mostly filled in as the Bengals' tight end with Gesicki sidelined, and he's been a solid contributor, recording 13 catches for 140 yards and two touchdowns since Week 6. Fant will again be a low-end streaming option for fantasy managers in Week 11 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
