STACKED’s take
Cuevas' TD and YAC production with Hibner out positions him for expanded role amid Andrews' struggles.
Rookie TE received expanded opportunity with Matthew Hibner sidelined by hand injury, finishing with 4 receptions for 44 yards and 1 TD on 23 snaps (14 receiving, 9 run blocking). Cuevas flashed ability to find space underneath, create yards after catch, and align in multiple positions. On TD reception, he aligned in backfield as fullback before releasing into open space. Demonstrated natural feel for finding openings in coverage and settling into areas where QB can deliver. Shows straight-line speed and yards-after-catch ability from multiple alignments (backfield, near guard). The source notes that with Mark Andrews struggling to consistently produce and injuries affecting tight end depth, Cuevas could find increasingly important role down the stretch. His positional versatility as receiving option from backfield, ability to create separation underneath, and yards-after-catch generation make him interesting weapon for offensive coordinator Declan Doyle to incorporate, positioning him as legitimate contributor rather than developmental depth piece.
