Bengals get all they bargained for in tight end Mike Gesicki
Mike GesickiThree years ago, Mike Gesicki was one of the top three tight ends in the NFL, behind only Travis Kelce and Mark Andrews.
Two short years later, Gesicki found himself languishing on a New England Patriots depth chart behind Hunter Henry.
Fast-forward to 2024. Henry is still plying his trade in New England. Gesicki, on the other hand, has found new life in Cincinnati. And what a life it is.
In Saturday night’s victory over the Denver Broncos, Gesicki did what only two Cincinnati Bengals tight ends had done before when he accounted for 10 receptions against Denver’s top-10 defense.
“I was just out there trying to make a play,” the soft-spoken Gesicki said after the game.
