Cincinnati Bengals coach Marvin Lewis said he never wants tight end Tyler Eifert to play 50 snaps in a game this season.
Lewis specifically said "Well I hope he never gets 50" when asked about a hypothetical 50-snap performance by Eifert. The oft-injured tight end managed to play in just two games in 2017 and is looking to be headed to a timeshare with Tyler Kroft as the Bengals' top tight end.
Our models like Eifert to finish as a top-10 tight end in fantasy this year with 60.6 catches, 604.5 yards, and 5.4 touchdowns in 2018. Those numbers could fall if he loses snaps to Kroft this season.
