Gesicki's 7 targets and WR3 role in Burrow offense make him a reliable TE streaming option.

Gesicki played the WR3 role in the Bengals' high-powered Joe Burrow-led offense in Week 1. Per PFF, he ran 81% of his routes out of the slot while also lining up outside on 18% of his routes, showing versatility. He finished with seven targets, five receptions, 78 yards, and a touchdown. The Bengals face Houston in Week 2, and the Bills just gassed them for 36 points and 410 total offensive yards in Week 1, suggesting the Bengals may need to pass more. Poniatowski recommends Gesicki as a solid tight end option if you need one in a pinch.
