Fantasy Football Week 14 TE Rankings: Darren Waller Goes Off, Mike Gesicki Climbs

Getty Tight end Mike Gesicki #88 of the Miami Dolphins celebrates with tight end Durham Smythe #81 after Gesicki made a touchdown reception against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Welcome to our Fantasy Football Tight End Rankings for Week 14 of the 2020 NFL regular season. This week we welcome back a top-eight scorer at the position, as Rob Gronkowski returns from a bye. Darren Waller continues to push Travis Kelce for the top play at the position, as he’s now scored 21.0-plus points in two of his last three games. Plus, Mike Gesicki looks to gain some consistency in his production.

Tight End Outlook Week 14

We liked Mike Gesicki (TE14) a week ago, mainly due to his matchup against the Bengals. However, his 23.18 points on 11 targets exceeded even our expectations. One of the more talented players at the position, Gesicki had seen his production drop since Tua Tagovailoa had been inserted into the starting lineup. However, he’s actually seen his target share moderately climb over that span, going from 5.0 with Ryan Fitzpatrick under center to 5.4 targets per game with Tua.

He’s clearly a top target in the offense, albeit a run-first offense, which somewhat caps his ceiling in non-plus matchups. With that said, Kansas City is beginning to look more and more like a plus-matchup. The Chiefs have allowed an average of 83 yards and two total TDs to starting TEs over their last three games.
