Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.
Mike Gesicki working in 2-TE sets at OTAs
Mike Gesicki and Hunter Henry have been on the field together in different schemes featuring both tight ends during New England’s OTAs.
Fantasy Impact
Following a lackluster season with the Miami Dolphins, Gesicki’s athleticism and history of strong performances make him a potential asset for fantasy football players. His rapport with quarterback Mac Jones, who said he was excited to work with Gesicki, could also enhance his value. He has frequently worked out of the slot and demonstrated his athleticism, which is impressing coaches after two seasons of watching Jonnu Smith struggle.

Desmond Ridder could excel in ‘position-less’ scheme
QB Desmond Ridder has seemed comfortable stepping into Arthur Smith and Terry Fontenot’s nontraditional, ‘position-less’ offensive strategy for 2023.
Fantasy Impact
With multiple running backs and a tight end playing a pivotal role, Ridder’s value in fantasy football could drastically increase due to the variety of targets, including Cordarrelle Patterson, Drake London, Kyle Pitts, Tyler Allgeier, and Bijan Robinson. This unique offensive design aims to maximize the talent on the field, potentially benefitting Ridder’s fantasy stats significantly.

Jalen Tolbert impressing at OTA’s
Jalen Tolbert has made “some really nice plays” during OTA’s and head coach Mike McCarthy has noticed a “second year jump”.
Fantasy Impact
It’s always good to hear of a young player improving and growing their skill sets. The problem in Tolbert’s case is that he is the Cowboys fourth wide receiver. Behind the likes of CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup, and Brandon Cooks, there’s not much receiving volume left for Tolbert.
