PFF believes Bengals need to pursue big-name TE in free agency
The Cincinnati Bengals had a dubious tight end room heading into the 2023 campaign.
Irv Smith Jr. was a letdown during the season, while Travis Hudson and Drew Sample performed admirably.
Big names play tight end for the final four clubs in the AFC playoff picture.
Travis Kelce plays for the Chiefs; Dawson Knox/Dalton Kincaid plays for the Bills; Mark Andrews plays for the Ravens; and Dalton Schultz plays for the Texans.
The Bengals need to add a skilled tight end during the summer, and Schultz would be a great fit, according to PFF’s Gordon McGuinness.
This summer, the Bengals may lose both Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd, who together saw 165 targets in 2023. The Bengals could win in the center of the field if they add a strong receiving tight end, but young receivers Andrei Iosivas and Charlie Jones could step up in their stead. Schultz had a 72.2 PFF receiving grade through the wild-card round this season, demonstrating his reliability as a target for the Texans.
Schultz would be a fantastic addition to the Bengals’ tight end group and might be a crucial player in Burrow and company’s quest for a successful resurgence.
