Mike Gesicki vs. Falcons — Red-Zone Surge Offers Sneaky Tight End Upside in Madrid

Gesicki enters Week 9 riding a five-game touchdown streak, emerging as one of Joe Burrow’s primary red-zone options. With fellow tight end Erick All lost for the season due to a torn ACL, Gesicki's high-leverage pass-catching snaps are secure even while sharing the room with Drew Sample.

Facing Atlanta in Madrid in a matchup projected to be high-scoring, our models project Gesicki for 2.9 receptions, 32.5 receiving yards, and 8.8 fantasy points. Fantasy managers dealing with tight end turbulence can view him as a viable streamer, though his fantasy floor remains tied to maintaining his scoring streak.

Chris Bell vs. DET — Modest Target Volume Limits Upside in Week 9

Listed as a starting outside receiver for the Dolphins alongside Caleb Douglas, rookie Chris Bell has carved out a steady role in Miami's Malik Willis-led offense. Bell has caught seven passes on nine targets over his last two games, showing signs of establishing rapport, though explosive plays remain limited.

With the 1-6 Dolphins entering this home clash as underdogs in a projected high-scoring contest against Detroit, game script could force extra passing volume. However, our weekly projection pegs Bell for just 2.3 catches and 25 receiving yards (5.8 fantasy points), meaning fantasy managers should keep him on the bench outside of deep leagues.
