Pats find success in two-TE formations

The New England Patriots didn’t consistently use both tight ends together, but the results were amazing when they did.

With Rob Gronkowski and Tim Wright on the field, Tom Brady was 7-for-11 for 101 yards and a touchdown. The Patriots also ran the ball seven times for 70 yards, which includes a career-long 43-yard dash by Stevan Ridley. On that play, Gronkowski and Wright were stand-up tight ends on opposite sides of the line. Wright sealed the edge with a block on Cincinnati cornerback Leon Hall that lasted juuuust long enough for Steven Ridley to turn the corner.

Fantasy Impact: 

The Pats seemed like they went back to the good old days of two TE sets. With a Brady seemingly struggling to connect with his WRs, two TE formations were productive and may be something we see more of to keep the Pats offense rolling like it did vs. Cincy. The story pointed out that the stats on "GronkWright" saw them play together on 18 of the 82 snaps (21.9 percent), but those plays accounted for 33.8 percent of New England’s yardage.

Bengals send Tyler Eifert (elbow) to IR, can return Week 10

The Cincinnati Bengals placed tight end Tyler Eifert on injured reserve with a designation to return due to the elbow injury he suffered in Sunday's game, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

NFL teams are allowed to use the IR designation in just one case each season. Under the guidelines of the rule, Eifert won't be eligible to practice for six weeks and can't return to game action for eight weeks after he is officially put on short-term IR.

Fantasy Impact: 

Eifert was poised for a breakout season prior to the injury. He can be safely dropped in virtually all formats. Jermaine Gresham finished #14 and #10 in PPR formats in 2011 and 2012 before Eifert's arrival. He doesn't have much upside, but he offers consistent baseline-type production at the position. Delanie Walker, Travis Kelce, Larry Donnell, Tim Wright and Marcedes Lewis are other good-to-decent fallback options.

Patriots Beat: Tim Wright could see the 'most extended action' at TE in Week 1

Don't be surprised if tight end Tim Wright plays a lot for the Patriots on Sunday in Miami. One teammate told me he's been impressed with how seamlessly Wright has transitioned into the Patriots' system and picked up a complex offense (he played 43 snaps, including penalties, in the preseason finale). So while Rob Gronkowski said he is ready to contribute in a part-time role in Week 1, Wright is primed for perhaps the most extended action at the position.

Fantasy Impact: 

We like Wright as a long play, but it sounds as if he has picked things up very quickly and is ready to make an impact from the get-go. He's nothing but a desperation play at this point, but things can change in a heartbeat.

Tom Brady on TE Tim Wright: 'We'll see what happens' vs. Dolphins

Tom Brady dialed the expectations back when asked about TE Tim Wright on Wednesday.

“We’ll see how his role plays out. It’s been fun to get to know him,” Brady said. “It’s been a very short period of time. A lot of our focus has been trying to get ready for Miami, and whatever role he can find for himself will be a benefit for us. He’s done a great job trying to learn everything since he’s got here. I didn’t get a chance to play with him last week, but we’ll see what happens this week. We’re trying to get to know each other and spend extra time communicating, gain his understanding of the things that he expects versus my expectations. It’s really a learning process.”

Fantasy Impact: 

We're not expecting Wright to make a big splash in Week 1, especially if Rob Gronkowski is ready to go. The two play different positions in the offense, but Gronk's absence could open up snaps and targets for Wright.
