Could Potential Free Agent Mike Gesicki be the Broncos' Answer at Tight End? Could the Denver Broncos find their tight end solution by pursuing free agent Mike Gesicki this offseason to boost their offense?
FEBRUARY 24 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM
Steps up in short-handed attack Gesicki secured eight of 10 targets for 68 yards in the Bengals' 19-17 win over the Steelers on Saturday night.
Impact Gesicki finished second in receptions, receiving yards and targets behind Ja'Marr Chase, as Tee Higgins' early exit due to an ankle injury helped boost the veteran tight end's involvement. Gesicki finished the regular season with a combined 18-154 line on 22 targets over the last two games, and his final 65-665-2 tally across 17 regular-season games featured his best catch and yardage totals since his 2021 season with Dolphins. If the Bengals are able to squeak into the postseason with a Broncos loss and Dolphins loss or tie Sunday, Gesicki figures to remain a solid complementary component of the air attack irrespective of Higgins' availability.

Involvement spikes Gesicki recorded 10 receptions on 12 targets for 86 yards in Saturday's 30-24 overtime win against the Bengals.
Impact Ja'Marr Chase drew most of Denver's defensive attention, and Gesicki took advantage by matching career highs in both targets and receptions. He was limited primarily to short gains, but he recorded key receptions of 10 and 12 yards in overtime -- the latter of which helped set up a potential game-winning field goal. While it was a solid performance, Gesicki had failed to top five targets in five straight games entering Saturday's contest.

Two grabs in Week 16 Gesicki caught both of his targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 24-6 win over the Browns.
Impact Gesicki could not get much going against the Browns, as he was limited to playing just 34 percent of the Bengals' offensive snaps while fellow tight end Drew Sample handled an 88 percent snap share. Since the Week 12 bye, the 29-year-old Gesicki has failed to reach a 50 percent snap share in any contest. With limited opportunities in the Bengals' passing attack, the veteran should not be trusted for fantasy purposes. Cincinnati hosts the Broncos in Week 17.
DECEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Three catches in Week 15 win Gesicki caught three of four targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 37-27 win over the Titans.
Impact Gesicki finished a distant third on the team in receiving yards behind Ja'Marr Chase (94) and Tee Higgins (88). The veteran tight end has accounted for only two of Joe Burrow's league-leading 36 touchdown passes heading into a Week 16 home game against the Browns, but Gesicki has carved out a passable floor with at least three catches in each of his last three games.

Bengals TE Mike Gesicki 'open to coming back' Should the Bengals bring back Mike Gesicki this offseason?
DECEMBER 14, 2024 • USATODAY.COM
Nabs three catches Monday Gesicki brought in all three of his targets for 24 yards in Monday's 27-20 win over Dallas.
Impact Gesicki has caught all eight of his targets since the Bengals Week 12 bye, resulting in 77 receiving yards. Those numbers scratch the surface for those in deeper formats, but leave much to be desired as a standard-league tight end. Gesicki and the Bengals have road tilt scheduled against the Titans in Week 15.
DECEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Perfect on five targets Gesicki recorded five receptions on five targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 44-38 loss to the Steelers.
Impact Gesicki's production had been tied to Tee Higgins' availability, though both managed to get involved Sunday. Gesicki finished third on the team in targets and tallied long receptions of 20 and 18 yards. Nevertheless, it will be difficult to trust him moving forward as he has managed to top 30 receiving yards in only three of seven games with Higgins on the field.
DECEMBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Held catchless on SNF Gesicki failed to bring in either of his targets in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.
Impact Gesicki had a rough go of things in a smaller role following star wideout Tee Higgins' (quadriceps) return Sunday. The veteran tight end has truly been a boom-or-bust option in fantasy this season, producing four games with less than one standard fantasy point while posting big numbers in others. Gesicki enters a bye week with a line of 34-383-2 in 12 starts with Cincinnati. The Bengals resume play against the Steelers on Dec. 1.
NOVEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Modest output in loss Gesicki brought in four of nine targets for 30 yards in the Bengals' 35-34 loss to the Ravens on Thursday night.
Impact Gesicki was third on the team in targets with a figure that also tied his season high, but unlike other games when Tee Higgins (quadricep) has been sidelined, Gesicki couldn't do much with the opportunity. The veteran tight end's yardage total was his fifth of 30 yards or less this season, and assuming Higgins is back to full health for a Week 11 road matchup against the Chargers on Sunday night, Nov. 17, Gesicki could be revert to a much smaller role.

Comes alive with late TDs Gesicki secured five of six targets for 100 yards and two touchdowns in the Bengals' 41-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
Impact Gesicki was the surprise leader in receiving yards on the afternoon for the Bengals, but he'd never gotten close had it not been for the 58 yards he gained on his two second-half touchdown grabs, the latter an impressive 47-yard catch and run with 5:37 remaining to put the game definitively out of reach. Gesicki has consistently delivered strong performances whenever Tee Higgins (quadricep) has been sidelined, and he may have another opportunity to take the field without his teammate due to the short turnaround before a Week 10 road matchup against the Ravens on Thursday night.

Breakout effort in loss Gesicki secured seven of eight targets for 73 yards in the Bengals' 37-17 loss to the Eagles on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.
Impact Gesicki was the surprise leader for the Bengals in receiving yards while checking in second to Ja'Marr Chase in both receptions and targets as well. The veteran tight end had logged under 20 snaps in each of his previous two games while logging just one reception for minus-2 yards in that span, but Tee Higgins' (quadriceps) absence certainly may have played a part in the unexpected surge. Gesicki could remain similarly involved in a Week 9 home matchup against the Raiders if his teammate logs a second straight absence.
