Don't expect Klein to make a major impact in the pass game Week One. One to two catches maximum should be expected from the rookie TE. His impact on the play action game and run will hopefully unlock this offense and free up the playbook for OC Nick Caley.

Klein limited to 1-2 catches Week 1; value in run blocking and play-action.

Round 2 TE Marlin Klein's role is blocking TE and explosive play option. Evan Brown expects Klein to make minimal pass-game impact in Week 1, projecting one to two catches maximum, with his primary value coming from run blocking and play-action contributions that could unlock the offense and free up OC Nick Caley's playbook.
