I just looked at the game by game stats this season and TE has been a huge issue all season. The stats bear that out consistently with every teams TE’s or backup TE’s having big games or definitely bigger than usual games, relative to their per game output.
To make matters worse, Gay only signed a 3 mil one year deal. That is peanuts. His speed was critical in the second level, and is a big loss. Don’t tell me Veach couldn’t take a few million off Creed’s ridiculous market resetting contract, or a mil off Noah Gray’s expensive deal, to try and keep Gay in the fold. We have no LB depth as well!
