Mike Gesicki Can't Be Trusted In Week 3

New England Patriots tight end Mike Gesicki isn't a reliable fantasy option heading into Sunday's clash with the New York Jets. While Gesicki impressed with five catches and 33 yards in Week 2, he remains the clear No. 2 option behind Hunter Henry. As a result, Gesicki's production is still volatile going forward, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him limited just to one or two targets during any given week. If Henry were to miss time with an injury, Gesicki could become a top-12 option. For the time being, though, your best bet is to look elsewhere for production at the tight end position.

Mike Gesicki Gets Involved Versus Former Team

New England Patriots tight end Mike Gesicki turned six targets into five receptions for 33 yards against his former team, the Miami Dolphins, in Week 2. Gesicki operated behind Hunter Henry but still delivered solid production on an equally promising 72 percent snap share. Henry is the only Patriots tight end who can be firmly trusted in fantasy football leagues at the moment, but managers desperately in need of points at the position might consider Gesicki's steady receiving usage. He's a fringe top-24 tight end heading into next week's clash with the Jets.

'Tightest bonds you can have': Patriots' Mac Jones-Mike Gesicki friendship

Hours after Gesicki signed with the Patriots, Jones invited him to crash at his place. On Sunday night, they face Gesicki's old team, the Dolphins.
Sep 15 · ESPN Patriots Mike Gesicki Mac JonesMike Gesicki - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots tight end Mike Gesicki gets his chance for a revenge game on Sunday Night Football versus the Miami Dolphins. However, the 27-year-old was clearly New England's No. 2 tight end behind Hunter Henry last week, so just how much Gesicki can get involved in Week 2 remains to be seen. He's a solid, big body around the goal line who is always a threat to score, but with Henry in the fold, Gesicki simply isn't worth starting in fantasy football.

Mike Gesicki Catches Three Passes In New England Debut

New England Patriots tight end Mike Gesicki caught three passes for 36 yards in the team's 25-20 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Down early, the Patriots were forced to rely more on the passing game to try and pull off the comeback. Quarterback Mac Jones threw for 316 yards and three touchdowns on the day. New England's TE1, Hunter Henry, led the position with five catches for 56 yards and a touchdown. Gesicki has been known as a solid receiving option as a tight end but remains behind Henry on the depth chart. He's not worth rostering in fantasy football.

Hunter Henry, Mike Gesicki Not Viable Fantasy Options In Week 1

New England Patriots tight ends Hunter Henry and Mike Gesicki (shoulder) will be available for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Gesicki was removed from the injury report after suffering a mild shoulder dislocation in mid-August. The Patriots are expected to utilize two tight end sets as both players will likely be the second and third pass-catching options behind top target JuJu Smith-Schuster. The Eagles were tough on tight ends in 2022 and ranked sixth in DVOA against the position. Gesicki and Henry are mainly streamers in deep-league formats, but fantasy managers should avoid starting them in fantasy with the extremely tough matchup.

Offseason In Review: New England Patriots

The 2022 season saw the Patriots fail to make the playoffs for the second time in the post-Tom Brady era. While the players deserve their fair share of blame for the team’s lack of success, New England’s struggles could mostly be attributed to the sideline. With Josh McDaniels having left for Las Vegas, Bill Belichick […]

New England Patriots tight end Mike Gesicki (shoulder), running back Pierre Strong Jr. (concussion), and wide receiver Ty Montgomery (knee) all returned to practice on Tuesday. The trio of skill players have all been out for varying periods of time, so it's a positive sign to see them all back to action a few weeks before the regular season begins. Gesicki has fantasy football intrigue as a mid-round tight end option, but Strong and Montgomery are not on the fantasy radar until further notice. Overall, the Patriots offense could take a step forward under new offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien.

Mike Gesicki Has Mild Dislocated Shoulder

New England Patriots tight end Mike Gesicki (shoulder) is reportedly dealing with a mild dislocated shoulder after leaving practice early on Monday. The team hopes he'll be ready for the Week 1 matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles, but he could miss plenty of preseason time moving forward. The former Miami Dolphin has been a standout at Patriots camp, so hopefully, he'll be able to heal up quickly. Gesicki has been getting work at wide receiver and alongside Hunter Henry to 12-personnel, so he could be a fantasy sleeper if the New England offense ascends under offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien.

Mike Gesicki Leaves Monday's Practice Early Due To Injury

New England Patriots tight end Mike Gesicki (upper body) left Monday's training camp practice early with an upper-body injury that he suffered during a tackling drill against linebacker Jahlani Tavai. Gesicki walked off the field in pain with a trainer while grabbing under his shoulder pads and didn't return. It's unclear how serious the 27-year-old's injury is at this time, so make sure to check back for updates. If Gesicki ends up missing considerable time, it will only raise the fantasy value of Hunter Henry heading into the regular season. Gesicki has a nice chance to bounce back in his first year in New England, but the presence of Henry will keep his fantasy ceiling limited. Target Gesicki as a low-end TE2 in deeper leagues as long as his injury isn't too serious.

Patriots Likely To Feature A Lot Of Two-Tight End Sets

The New England Patriots' new-look offense under offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien will likely feature a heavy dosage of two-tight end sets that will resemble what we saw in O'Brien's first stint with the team, writes Patriots.com's Evan Lazar. That means a lot of Hunter Henry and new tight end Mike Gesicki. In spring workouts, Gesicki's natural pass-catching skills and alignment flexibility gave the team a clearer path to featuring both TEs on the field together. He was impactful running the seam, stretching the field horizontally and showing decent separation quickness. Gesicki will probably have the higher fantasy ceiling, but the fact that both Gesicki and Henry will be fighting for targets will most likely keep their price low as TE2s in drafts this fall.

Patriots Remain In DeAndre Hopkins Pursuit

The Patriots took care of one of their own wide receivers Wednesday, coming to terms on a deal that pushes DeVante Parker‘s contract past 2023. Rather than the contract being a sign the Patriots are steering away from DeAndre Hopkins, the Parker deal may end up helping the team on this front. Parker’s extension numbers […]
