Positive signalBreakout

Sadiq's 3-21-1 line and goal-line carry signal breakout potential with Cooper sidelined.

Sadiq, a first-round tight end, was active in Week 1 despite missing time this summer recovering from offseason sports hernia surgery. He earned three targets (matching teammate Mason Taylor) and caught all three for 21 yards, plus a three-yard goal-line carry that resulted in his first career touchdown. According to beat writers, Sadiq was getting significant volume in practice before his injury, signaling the team will find ways to get the ball in his hands. With fellow first-rounder Omar Cooper Jr. dealing with a high-ankle sprain that may cost him a few weeks, Sadiq could see his target share rise quickly, making him a potential season-long breakout at tight end.
