2023 Fantasy Outlook
Gesicki is an effective pass catcher, but poor blocking skills have cut into his playing time. After topping 700 receiving yards in both 2020 and 2021, he had only 362 yards in 2022 under new coach Mike McDaniel while playing more than half of Miami’s offensive snaps only five times in 17 games. His offseason move to New England is intriguing given the Patriots’ history of TE production, but incumbent Hunter Henry is the more well-rounded player. While Patriots tight ends found the end zone only twice in 2022, the team got 10 TDs out of the position in 2021. Multi-TE sets should be a regular feature under new/old offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien, and it won't be surprising if Gesicki plays ahead of Henry in clear passing situations. Read Past Outlooks

No targets in Week 14
Gesicki was on the field for 19 of a possible 57 snaps on offense in Thursday's 21-18 win over the Steelers, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Gesicki has back-to-back games without a target and three in a row without any catches. He's been playing fewer snaps than both Hunter Henry and Pharaoh Brown, with any hope for fantasy relevance down the stretch likely depending on Henry missing time. Henry played 88 percent of snaps and caught two touchdown passes Thursday night, so he should be fine to handle his usual starting role Week 15 against Kansas City.

The Dolphins used the franchise tag to bring back Gesicki on the heels of a busy season in
which he ranked third among tight ends in targets (112) and fifth in catches (73). That volume is
exciting, but Gesicki didn’t do much with it, finishing eighth at the position with 780 yards while
scoring only two touchdowns. The inefficiency on a per-catch basis can be chalked up to both
Gesicki’s own shortcomings and those of QB Tua Tagovailoa, who will be under center for
Miami again in 2022. The offense made significant additions, most notably bringing in Tyreek
Hill. A receiving corps highlighted by Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Cedrick Wilson will demand plenty
of targets, but defenses will have to focus most of their resources outside, which should leave
Gesicki in favorable matchups over the middle. A third consecutive season north of 700
receiving yards is certainly within the 26-year-old’s grasp, but Gesicki may need to improve his
blocking to maximize his potential. He often found himself off the field in running situations,
including near the goal line, which helps explain why the 6-6, 250-pound Gesicki scored only
twice in 2021 after finding paydirt 11 times the previous two seasons.
