Tommy Sweeney Fantasy

Buffalo Bills tight end Tommy Sweeney will be the No. 2 tight end option for the team heading into the season. He saw limited action during his rookie season in 2019. Sadly, he missed all of the 2020 season due to a heart condition. Sweeney outplayed Jacob Hollister in training camp and won the backup role. However, Dawson Knox will remain the starting tight end in Buffalo. Honestly, neither of them are projected to do much with the Bills being stacked at wide receiver. It's unlikely that Sweeney has any kind of fantasy value while Knox is healthy.

Buffalo Bills tight end Tommy Sweeney (heart) will miss the rest of the season after a cardiologist discovered that he has myocarditis, which is a heart condition. Sweeney started the season on the Physically Unable to Perform list with a foot injury, and he was nearing a return when his condition was discovered during an NFL-mandated checkup. He was also placed on the COVID-19 list in Week 7 after being a high-risk close contact to teammate Dawson Knox, who tested positive for the virus. The 25-year-old caught eight passes for 114 yards in six games in his rookie season in 2019. Knox remains the team's top pass-catching tight end, with Lee Smith, rookie Reggie Gilliam and Tyler Kroft backing him up.

Buffalo Bills tight end Tommy Sweeney was the Bills' most effective tight end on Sunday, catching all five of his targets for 76 yards. Sweeney showed good hands and solid athleticism but did make a critical rookie mistake by failing to go out of bounds on his reception late in the fourth quarter with the Bills out of timeouts. Sweeney will remain behind Tyler Kroft and Dawson Knox for the playoffs, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him emerge as the back-up tight end next year.
