Mike Gesicki Set to Play Key Role for Cincinnati Bengals Against Philadelphia Eagles

The Cincinnati Bengals, riding a two-game win streak, are preparing to host the Philadelphia Eagles at Paycor Stadium on Sunday. With the Bengals looking to extend their winning streak, tight end Mike Gesicki is expected to play a significant role in the offense.

Tee Higgins, the Bengals’ No. 2 receiver, has been ruled inactive due to a quad injury, which means quarterback Joe Burrow will likely rely more on Gesicki, along with his No. 1 receiver Ja'Marr Chase and other receivers like Andrei Iosivas and Trenton Irwin.

Gesicki, known for his dynamic playmaking abilities, could be a key target for Burrow, especially given the absence of Higgins. This matchup against the Eagles, who are coming off a strong 28-3 win against the New York Giants, will be crucial for the Bengals’ continued success.

The game also features an interesting subplot with Bengals running back Chase Brown facing off against his twin brother, Eagles safety Sydney Brown, for the first time at any level.
