Bengals TE Mike Gesicki tied his season high by playing 31 snaps in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. That also set a season high at 53.4% snap share. Gesicki ranked second on the team in targets (8), receptions (7), and receiving yards (73).

Gesicki clearly benefited from the Bengals missing WR Tee Higgins. He drew 5 targets in the first half, which Cincinnati finished tied 10-10.
Gesircki played fewer than 20 snaps each of the previous two weeks and hadn't seen more than 2 targets in a game since Week 3.
He'll be worth a look for a Week 9 meeting with the Raiders if Higgins remains out.
