Bengals Beat: TE Tyler Kroft could be guy for long haul

Pro Football Talk

Jul 09, 2018 · 10:29 AM EDT

The tight end of the future in Cincinnati may indeed be named Tyler. But maybe not the Tyler it was supposed to be.

Tyler Kroft could be the guy more likely to remain over the long haul. And he’s hoping that’s the case.

“There’s definitely momentum off of [2017],” Kroft told the Cincinnati Enquirer. “I think I’ve done a good job learning and understanding the offense as much as I can. Just the confidence level is up there and I think there is confidence between me and Andy Dalton and the coaching staff because Bill [Lazor] is still here and he saw it. It’s exciting.”

Fantasy Impact:

Eifert‘s short- and long-term health is still an unknown, the story said. With Eifert limited to two games in 2017, Kroft caught 42 passes for 404 yards and seven touchdowns. As tight ends go, that should be good enough to give him security.

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert dealing with undisclosed medical issue

Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert was absent from minicamp on Tuesday, and did not participate with a helmet on Wednesday. When asked if Eifert would be ready for training camp, Marvin Lewis said, "I can't tell you that. When they tell him or release him to do what he can do then he'll be ready to go".

Fantasy Impact:

This does not sound terribly optimistic for Eifert, who has missed a whopping 40 games over the past four seasons due to various injuries. Most recently, Eifert had surgeries to repair his ailing back and to remove a cyst from his knee. He currently looks like a major gamble as the No. 14 tight end off the board in fantasy drafts.

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert still taking it slow

The Bengals continue to play it conservatively this spring with Tyler Eifert’s surgically-repaired back, although head coach Marvin Lewis was surprised his starting tight end wasn’t on the field for Tuesday’s first practice of mandatory minicamp.

“He was here all morning and then all of a sudden he wasn’t,” Lewis said after practice. “I’m sure he’s being dealt with in some kind of medical fashion. That’s the only reason a guy wouldn’t be here.”

Fantasy Impact:

The Bengals have pretty much kept Eifert out of team work this spring as he recovers from the back surgery that limited him to just two games last season. But there’s an air of mystery around his comeback. Lewis said Eifert has been feeling good about things and so has the team but they still need to see where he's at.

Bengals bring back TE Tyler Eifert

The Cincinnati Bengals and tight end Tyler Eifert have agreed to a one-year deal to keep him a Bengal.

Fantasy Impact:

When healthy—two keywords—Eifert has been a difference-maker on offense for the Bengals. Sadly, that hasn't been the case, as he has appeared in a combined 10 games the last two seasons.

Fantasy owners will recall Eifert's breakout 2015 campaign, when he caught 52 passes for 615 yards and 13 touchdowns (in only 13 games). He finished as the No. 6 scoring fantasy tight end in PPR leagues that season.

Again, if healthy, Eifert will be a boost to the Bengals' offense and fantasy football teams.
