The Miami Dolphins placed their 2022 franchise tag on tight end Mike Gesicki, setting up a potential showdown with the team. Gesicki was believed to be considering filing a grievance to have an arbitrator decide if he should be paid as a tight end, or if his use in the slot or out wide constitutes him being consider a wide receiver - and having a much larger salary cap number. That, however, does not seem to have passed.
According to ESPN’s Field Yates, Gesicki has now signed his franchise tag, agreeing to the one-year guaranteed contract worth $10.
