His route rate has come up in the last couple of weeks because the Bengals have lost multiple tight ends to season ending injuries. It's been up and around 65% in each of his last two games.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

6 TDs in 8 games; 65% routes last two weeks; viable in plus matchups.

The source views Gesicki similarly to Darren Waller but in a better offense (Cincinnati Bengals with Joe Burrow). Gesicki has six touchdowns in eight games with five consecutive TDs at one point, making the touchdown bet reasonable. His route rate has increased to around 65% in each of his last two games due to Bengals tight end injuries, positioning him as a semi-full-time player who can be started in stronger matchups if he maintains 60-70% route participation weekly.
