The Cincinnati Bengals signed veteran tight end Noah Fant, casting doubt on Mike Gesicki’s 2025 fantasy football upside in a suddenly crowded TE room.

Fant, 27, will bring a veteran presence and some proven production to the Bengals' tight end room. The former first-round pick has hit 500 yards receiving in four of his six seasons. Last year with the Seahawks, Fant caught 48 passes for 500 yards and one touchdown.

Veteran tight end Noah Fant is expected to sign with the Cincinnati Bengals following his release by the Seattle Seahawks, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Thursday.
