QB Joe Burrow says it’s a ‘luxury’ for the Bengals to have so many pass-catching tight ends

Associated Press  

CINCINNATI — On a day when star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase was often double-teamed, it was tight end Mike Gesicki who led the Cincinnati Bengals with seven catches for 91 yards against the two-time reigning Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs last week. In recent seasons, tight ends haven’t been primary options for Joe Burrow in the passing game. Coach Zac Taylor said implementing tight ends as receivers has been in the game plan since training camp, especially after the Bengals lost No. “We have a lot of tight ends we feel good about, putting them on the field and going to make a play,” Burrow said “So that’s a luxury we have this year.” Gesicki, the 28-year-old former member of the New England Patriots and Miami Dolphins, was brought in as a pass-catching option.
