He played 14.7 percent of Cincinnati's snaps in 2025, next to last among qualified tight ends, yet averaged 2.4 targets and 3.8 half-PPR points a game over ten appearances, catching 19 of 24 targets without a drop. That's a player who earns work nearly every time he runs a route and then watches most of the game from the sideline. Cincinnati projects fifth in the league by implied totals, so the offense could feed a bigger role if the staff wanted one, but he's 31 and sits fourth on the depth chart, which suggests the Bengals have already decided how they want to use him.",
