CINCINNATI- Mike Gesicki is coming off the second best statistical season of his career in Cincinnati and would love to stay with the Bengals. He played this season on a one-year contract worth $2.5 million.
The veteran tight end discussed his future, one that will weigh on money and more in a final decision this spring. Gesicki had 63 catches for 665 receiving yards and two touchdowns as a Bengal.
“Playing with Joe is definitely a dream, it’s been incredible,” Gesicki said Monday. “He’s been a great teammate, a great guy off the field. Like it’s everything and more than I expected. But because I came off a career year, I got the franchise label, so I wasn’t able to enter the market at that time. I went to New England, but I wasn’t used as much as I expected.
“So my market was very low, not that the only thing on my mind is making money, but it’s definitely a thought process in my mind, but there are a lot of things to consider. This place is great. They welcome you with open arms, and I am very grateful, like I will always remember, no matter what, this year as a lot of fun and a lot of relationships that I have. knotted which will follow me for the rest. of my career for the rest of my life.
Cincinnati has cycled through tight ends for Burrow to target in recent years, but Gesicki could stick with the right deal for another year and beyond.
“A lot of people played a role,” Gesicki said of his impact on a diverse range of offensive weapons. “And I give a lot of credit to, you know, Zach and the way he’s, you know, built this offense, and the way he uses everybody.”
