Mike Gesicki is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for tight ends. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 11 of the 2024 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 57% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki had a quiet Week 10 against the Baltimore Ravens, finishing with four receptions for 30 yards and no scores. His nine targets, however, were the third-highest on the team, trailing only behind Chase Brown and Ja'Marr Chase.
With Tee Higgins absent, the 29-year-old's target volume was steady, making Gesicki a dependable option in the Bengals' offense. If Higgins continues to miss time, the tight end's role could become more significant, which is appealing in fantasy leagues.
Mike Gesicki matched his season-high of 9 targets last night
Just 4 catches for 30 scoreless yards
Heading into Week 10, an average of 3.8 tight ends log 9+ targets each week
Solid start that just didn’t hit

While Gesicki only managed 7.0 PPR points in Week 10, his recent performance in Week 9 showed his scoring potential, where he found the end zone twice.
The presence of Tanner Hudson in Week 10, who outperformed the veteran tight end with six catches for 42 yards and a touchdown, does add a bit of competition. However, Gesicki's experience and talent still make him a trustworthy option. As long as he sees this level of volume, he will offer a solid floor for fantasy managers.
In Week 11, Gesicki faces the Los Angeles Chargers, followed by a bye in Week 12. Though his production may dip if Higgins returns, his potential in 10+ team leagues is strong. If you need a stable tight end with red zone potential, the Penn State product is worth a spot on your roster.
