No usage in passing game in Week 15
Lewis went without a target in Sunday's 38-13 loss to the 49ers while playing six of the Bears' 53 snaps on offense.
Analysis: Lewis has suited up in each of Chicago's first 13 games of the season, but he's played more than 20 snaps on offense on just one occasion and has logged only one target on the campaign. Rather than representing a viable pass-catching threat, the 40-year-old tight end -- the second-oldest player in the NFL -- brings most of his value as a positive locker-room presence and as a reliable blocker at this stage of his career.

Intends to re-sign with Bears
Lewis is meeting with Chicago on Monday with the intention of re-signing for the 2024 season, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reports.
Analysis: Lewis appears set for a second campaign in Chicago after playing in all 17 regular-season contests last season. He's regarded as one of the league's top blocking tight ends and sprinkled in some contributions as a receiver in 2023, catching four of five targets for 29 yards and a score. His Week 16 touchdown was notable in that it made him the oldest tight end in NFL history to record a receiving score. Lewis turned 40 years old in May and will be embarking upon his 19th professional campaign…read more

Remains key cog in 17th season
Lewis was targeted seven times and caught six passes for 66 yards and two touchdowns over 17 appearances in the 2022 season.
Analysis: The 38-year-old made little fantasy impact in his 17th season, but he did play at least 41 percent of offensive snaps for a fourth year in a row. Lewis remains a trusty blocker at the tight end position, and if he elects to continue playing, the free agent will likely land a roster spot in Green Bay or elsewhere.

Finds end zone in win
Lewis caught both his targets for 32 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: While he didn't see big volume, the veteran tight end made a huge impact for the Packers. Lewis' first catch gave Green Bay its first TD of the day on a one-yard strike from Aaron Rodgers, while his second reception went for 31 yards and set the team up in the red zone for an eventual AJ Dillon one-yard scoring plunge. Lewis has two touchdowns on the season -- the 10th time in his 17-year career he's scored multiple TDs -- but this was the first time in 2022 he's seen more than one target in a…read more

Catches pass in win
Lewis was targeted once and caught one pass for 14 yards in Monday's 24-12 victory over the Rams.
Analysis: Lewis played at least 41 percent of the snaps for a second straight game and caught his first pass since Week 10. He has a plus matchup in Week 16 against the Dolphins, but with just four receptions and 34 yards on the season, there is little reason to believe he will do enough to make a fantasy impact.

First touchdown since 2020
Lewis caught his only target for a two-yard touchdown in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Giants.
Analysis: The reception was the first for Lewis in 2022, and the touchdown was his first since Week 12 of the 2020 season. The veteran led Packers tight ends in snaps Week 5, but with blocking being his primary purpose on the field, his fantasy appeal remains limited.

No injury designation for Week 4
Lewis doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's contest against the Patriots, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Lewis didn't practice Thursday and was limited Wednesday and Friday, but the veteran tight end will still be available for Week 4. The 2006 first-round pick has yet to be targeted this season despite playing over 35 percent of the team's offensive snaps in each of the first three games.

Lewis (groin) is active Sunday against the Buccaneers, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Lewis logged limited practices Wednesday and Friday with a DNP on Thursday. The veteran tight end has yet to be targeted this season despite playing 38 and 47 percent of the offensive snaps in the first two weeks respectively.

Not targeted Week 1
Lewis was not targeted in Sunday's loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Lewis -- along with Robert Tonyan -- was one of two Packers tight ends to start the opener, and he wound up leading all Packers tight ends with 23 snaps. However, Lewis was limited to blocking duties only and did not see a pass in his direction. The 38-year-old will continue seeing snaps, but don't expect him to contribute to your fantasy team.

Plays in every game in 16th season
Lewis was targeted 28 times and caught 23 passes for 214 yards over 17 appearances in the 2021 season.
Analysis: Lewis has not been a fantasy factor for awhile, but he filled a steady role for the Packers in 2021, appearing in every game and serving as the team's top blocking tight end. The 16-year veteran signed a two-year contract with the Packers last month, so he figures to return to Green Bay for another go-around.

Off COVID list
Lewis was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday and will be eligible to play Sunday against the Vikings.
Analysis: The veteran tight end has played at least 24 offensive snaps in seven of the last eight games and has accumulated 14 receptions for 106 yards during that stretch, so his absence would have been noteworthy. Expect Lewis to reprise his role as a blocker extraordinaire with Josiah Deguara acting as the primary tight end.

Hits COVID list
Lewis has landed on the Packers' reserve/COVID-19 list.
Analysis: Lewis apparently tested positive for the virus according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. For him to return to the Packers' Week 17 matchup with the Vikings, he will need to clear the NFL's health and safety protocols. If he is unable to return, Tyler Davis and Dominique Dafney would be next in line at tight end behind Josiah Deguara.

Snap count declines
Lewis was targeted three times and caught two passes for two yards in the Packers' 24-22 victory over the Browns in Week 16.
Analysis: After racking up at least 40 yards in back-to-back outings Lewis made only a blip in the box score in Week 16. Part of that may have been due to reduced opportunities, as his snap-count percentage declined from 50 to 41 percent. Lewis will have a chance to find the end zone in Week 17 against a Vikings team that allowed opposing tight ends to tally five touchdowns over its last six games, but with him taking a back seat to Josiah Deguara in Week 16 after splitting the work with him in the six…read more

Active again in passing game
Lewis was targeted three times and caught three passes for 40 yards in Sunday's 31-30 victory over the Ravens.
Analysis: Lewis set season highs with four catches and 51 yards in Week 14, and he followed that up with his second-best day of the campaign from both a reception and yardage standpoint. He will be worth a look in Week 16 against a Browns team that has had issues containing tight ends of late, but fantasy players will probably want to turn their eyes elsewhere, as Lewis trailed fellow tight end Josiah Deguara in snaps for the second week in a row and still retains a fairly low floor.

Busy against Bears
Lewis was targeted four times and caught four passes for 51 yards in Sunday's 45-30 victory over the Bears.
Analysis: Both the reception and yardage totals were season highs for Lewis, who played 55 percent of the snaps Sunday after being on the field for fewer than 40 percent of the plays the Packers ran over the two weeks leading up to their Week 13 bye. While Lewis had his best game of the season, he still split tight end duties with teammate Josiah Deguara, so his fantasy value hasn't been altered significantly. Lewis will have the matchup in his favor in both Weeks 15 and 16, but considering he racked up…read more

Reduced role in Week 11
Lewis was not targeted in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Lewis led Packers tight ends in snaps in the first two games the team played after losing Robert Tonyan to a season-ending knee injury Week 8, but he finished second in that department Sunday, spending 17 plays on the field compared to Josiah Deguara's 27. Lewis will continue filling a regular role thanks to his blocking skills, but don't be surprised if he plays second fiddle to Deguara moving forward.

Targeted twice in victory
Lewis was targeted twice and caught two passes for 10 yards in Sunday's 17-0 victory over the Seahawks.
Analysis: Lewis was on the field for more than half the plays the Packers ran Week 10, but even with starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers returning, he was limited mainly to blocking duties like he usually is. Chances are Rodgers at least will try to find Lewis in the end zone at some point, as several times over the past two seasons the veteran tight end was rewarded for his thankless work. However, don't expect that to happen Week 11, as the Packers face a Vikings team that hasn't allowed opposing tight…read more

Limited to one Week 9 catch
Lewis was targeted once and caught one pass for minus-1 yard in Sunday's 13-7 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Lewis led Packers tight ends in snaps against Kansas City, but he spent most of the day providing added protection for Jordan Love, who was blitzed heavily in his first pro start. Lewis figures to continue spending most of his time blocking, but with top pass-catching tight end Robert Tonyan (knee) out for the season, Lewis could see a few more passes in his direction once starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers (illness) is back at the helm.

More work with Tonyan out
Lewis is in line for more work following Robert Tonyan's diagnosis of a torn ACL, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Coach Matt LaFleur said the Packers will take a "by-committee" approach at tight end following the loss of Tonyan for the rest of the season. Lewis may not be in line for a jump in targets, but his share of the offensive snaps could bump up from the 40-50 percent that he's earned in most of the team's eight games so far. Along with Lewis, Josiah Deguara, Dominique Dafney and Tyler Davis will be the TE considerations for Green Bay.

Multiple catches in third straight
Lewis was targeted three times and caught three passes for 31 yards in Sunday's 24-10 victory over Washington.
Analysis: Lewis caught just two total passes over the first four weeks of the season, but he has now recorded multiple receptions in three straight contests. He may be more on the fantasy radar than he was early on, but he still has just nine receptions on the season and continues playing second fiddle behind starting tight end Robert Tonyan.

Makes key play in victory
Lewis was targeted twice and caught two passes for 34 yards in Sunday's 25-22 victory over the Bengals.
Analysis: Lewis did not do a whole lot Sunday, but he did come up with a 20-yard reception on what turned out to be the game-winning drive in overtime. With four receptions for 60 yards on the season, Lewis is not putting up the type of numbers that will help fantasy players as he often acts as a sixth offensive lineman and focuses on blocking assignments rather than being used as a receiving threat.

One catch in opener
Lewis was targeted once and caught the pass for 19 yards in Sunday's 38-3 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Lewis was credited with a start Sunday, but he wound up spending only 15 plays on the field and drawing no more than the lone target. He caught just 10 passes last season and 28 over the last three, so it's unlikely he'll make any sort of regular impact in fantasy leagues.

Sticking around in Green Bay
Lewis agreed Wednesday with the Packers on a two-year, $8 million contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Lewis will be returning for his 16th year in the NFL in 2021, and a fourth straight season in Green Bay. The veteran tight end's deal reportedly includes $4 million guaranteed, an indication of the value he provides to the Packers as a leader and reliable depth option. Though Lewis occasionally sees usage in the red zone (three touchdowns in 2020), his targets come too inconsistently to translate into real fantasy value.

Rewarded in red zone
Lewis caught 10 passes for 107 yards and three touchdowns over 15 regular-season games with the Packers in 2020.
Analysis: The veteran tight end was rewarded for his blocking-oriented role with three trips to the end zone, but he spent most of the campaign keeping defenders off his quarterback and fellow skill players. Lewis will turn 37 in May, but according to Andy Herman of the Pack-A-Day Podcast, he intends to keep playing and wants to do so for the Packers. If Green Bay elects to bring him back, Lewis would likely reprise a similar role to the one he filled in 2020.

Lewis hauled in his lone target and tallied one reception for nine yards in Sunday's victory over the Bears.
Analysis: Lewis played the second-most snaps among Packers tight ends for the ninth game in a row, and although he caught his first pass since Week 14, he was limited mainly to blocking duty like he usually is. He found the end zone three times during the regular season, but he caught just 10 passes, despite playing in all but one game.

Analysis: Lewis went through his normal routine of load management through the week, including an absence from Thursday's practice. He'll nevertheless be ready to go for Sunday's divisional tilt.

Analysis: The veteran tight end's injury outlook for Week 17 is not looking especially encouraging at the moment, as Lewis downgraded from limited participation Wednesday.

Analysis: The veteran tight end has been coping with a knee issue since early October, but he's still proven capable of getting on the field for 13 of Green Bay's 14 games this season. Barring a setback to his status Friday, Lewis is trending toward a Week 16 activation. He'll be afforded slightly more time to get his body right, with the Packers not kicking off against the Titans until Sunday Night Football.

Downgraded in practice
Lewis (knee) was a non-participant during the Packers' practice session Thursday.
Analysis: The veteran tight end is trending in the wrong direction for Week 13, as he was able to contribute a limited session in practice the day prior. Lewis has been dealing with recurring knee issues since early October, but he's only been forced to sit out one game all season. If Lewis were unavailable to face the Eagles on Sunday afternoon, Green Bay may need to add reinforcements at the position, as Robert Tonyan and Jace Sternberger would stand as the team's only two available options.

Third score of season
Lewis was targeted four times and caught two passes for 16 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's victory over the Bears.
Analysis: The four targets were a season high for Lewis, and although he hauled in just two of them, he did catch multiple passes for the first time this season and found paydirt for the third time. He's not seeing enough passes in his direction to help fantasy players, but Aaron Rodgers has looked his way more often in the red zone, and don't be surprised if the QB continues trying to reward his veteran blocking specialist when he gets the opportunity.

Catches one pass in defeat
Lewis caught one pass for eight yards in Sunday's loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Lewis did not practice much last week, but that has been the case for much of the season, and he still was able to play Sunday for the ninth time in 10 opportunities. He hasn't caught more than one pass in any game this season, and the Packers will continue relying on him mainly for his blocking skills.

Held out Thursday
Lewis (knee) did not participate during the Packers' practice session Thursday.
Analysis: The veteran tight end has been dealing with knee issues since early October, though he was only forced to sit out Week 4. Practice reps have been managed for Lewis over the past month and a half, but he has registered five consecutive starts nevertheless. His status is seemingly trending in the wrong direction for a Week 11 status against the Colts, however. If Lewis is ultimately unable to play, Jace Sternberger would potentially be the only eligible tight end on the active roster besides…read more

Limited Wednesday, per usual
Lewis (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Lewis is following his usual practice regimen, as the veteran tight end is managing his reps to start the week. There's no concern about his ability to play this week against the Colts, and fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned with his health anyway, as Lewis has generated a 4-32-2 line through eight games.

Ready to face former team
Lewis (knee) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Lewis put forth an LP/DNP/FP practice slate this week, which puts him on track to suit up Sunday. The veteran tight end played for the Jaguars from 2010-17, and with Robert Tonyan (ankle) considered questionable and John Lovett (knee) having recently been lost for the year due to a torn ACL, it's possible that Lewis could see a slight uptick in opportunities against his former squad.

Downgraded Thursday
Lewis (knee) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Lewis has continuously popped up on the injury report despite playing in the past four games, but this news is cause for concern for his chances to play Sunday. The veteran hauled in a touchdown pass in last week's win over the 49ers, but he's been relegated to more of a blocking role throughout the season. The tight end depth chart is a bit banged up at the moment, with Lewis, Robert Tonyan (ankle) and John Lovett (knee) all dealing with injuries.

Back on injury report
Lewis (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Lewis has been a recurring member of the Packers' injury report due to this knee injury, but he's managed to play in the last four games. The veteran tight end typically sticks to a blocking role, but he has scored twice on just four receptions this year.

Scores second touchdown
Lewis converted his lone target into a one-yard touchdown in Thursday's 34-17 victory over the 49ers.
Analysis: As per usual, Lewis was limited mainly to blocking duty throughout the contest, but he was rewarded for his efforts with a goal-line target. Lewis continues to run behind Robert Tonyan and has totaled just nine receptions for 32 yards and two scores over seven games, so he continues to reside on the fringe of fantasy relevance.

Ready to rock
Lewis (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation heading into Thursday's game against San Francisco.
Analysis: Lewis has seen his practice reps managed by the team the past two weeks but had ultimately suited up, so this news isn't surprising. Now healthy, the veteran tight end is expected to share depth reps with Jace Sternberger behind starter Robert Tonyan.

Upgrades to limited participation
Lewis (knee) was a limited participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Lewis has been on the injury report with this knee issue before each of the last three games, but he's avoided missing time. His upgrade to limited participation Tuesday signals that he'll be ready to go Thursday against the 49ers. Lewis' role has been negligible this year, however, as he's recorded just three receptions for 31 yards and a touchdown through six contests.

Estimated as non-participant
Lewis (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated injury report.
Analysis: The veteran played his usual blocking-heavy role during Sunday's loss to the Vikings and didn't receive a target, though he uncharacteristically was charged with a pair of holding penalties. Lewis has been bothered by the knee issue for much of the season but so far has only missed the Week 4 matchup with Atlanta.

Not on final injury report
Lewis (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Vikings, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Lewis sandwiched Thursday's missed practice between limited sessions Wednesday and Friday, but he's apparently feeling healthy enough to suit up Sunday. The veteran tight end is poised to share reps with Jace Sternberger behind Robert Tonyan, who has emerged as quarterback Aaron Rodgers' favorite target at the position.

Fails to practice Thursday
Lewis (knee) didn't participate in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Lewis took a step back in the Packers' second practice of the week, as he had been a limited participant at Wednesday's session. The Packers haven't indicated that Lewis experienced a setback, making it possible that his absence Thursday may have amounted to pre-planned maintenance. In any case, the Packers will decide whether the blocking specialist will carry a designation into Sunday's game against the Vikings following Friday's practice.

Ready for Week 6
Lewis (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The veteran tight end never put in a full practice session this week due to the knee issue, but it won't impact his availability for Sunday's contest. Lewis has two receptions for 22 yards and is mostly serving as a blocking tight end this season.

Can't practice Thursday
Lewis (knee) did not participate during Thursday's practice session, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Given that the 36-year-old sat out Green Bay's Week 4 win over Atlanta with the same injury, it's discouraging for his Week 6 status that he downgraded from limited practice participation Wednesday to a full absence Thursday. Lewis still has a chance to suit up for the Packers' Week 6 showdown with Tampa Bay if he can show progress to team trainers, but he's trending in the wrong direction at the moment.

Still bothered by knee injury
Lewis (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Lewis usually takes a veteran rest day on Wednesdays when he's healthy, but it's encouraging that he's practicing in some capacity for the first time since Week 3. If he's able to play Sunday versus the Buccaneers, Lewis likely won't have a major role considering how well Robert Tonyan performed in a Week 4 win over the Falcons.

Sidelined in Week 4
Lewis (knee) is inactive for the Packers' Week 4 matchup against the Falcons.
Analysis: Lewis was listed as doubtful heading into the matchup after failing to practice in any capacity throughout the week. He has served in a rotation of three tight ends for the Packers, meaning some opportunity could be open for Robert Tonyan and Jace Sternberger.

Listed as doubtful
Lewis (knee) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Falcons.
Analysis: The lack of pass-catching depth for the Packers continues to rear its ugly head as Allen Lazard's undefined absence following core muscle surgery is only worsened by Lewis' doubtful designation. Robert Tonyan and Jace Sternberger will continue to operate as the two main TEs for the Packers, but the wide receiver corps is dangerously thin behind Davante Adams (hamstring) and Marquez Valdes-Scantling, which would have likely allowed for the veteran to see a few more snaps if he were able to play.

Misses another practice
Lewis (knee) was absent from practice Saturday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Lewis didn't participate in Thursday's practice, either, as he deals with an unspecified knee issue. His absence wouldn't be a major blow to the Packers' plans, as he's caught just two passes all year, though one of those passes came in the end zone.

DNP for Thursday's session
Lewis (knee) was a non-participant during Thursday's practice session.
Analysis: The 36-year-old tight end collected his first TD catch of the season while playing 32 percent of the offensive snaps during Sunday night's win against the Saints, and there was no report shared during the game that would indicate an injury to Lewis. He's popped up on the injury report for Green Bay's first practice of the week, as the team prepares for a Monday night matchup against a Falcons defense that has so far this season surrendered the third-most receiving yards to opposing tight ends.

Finds paydirt in Week 3 win
Lewis was targeted twice and finished with one reception for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-30 victory over the Saints.
Analysis: Lewis found himself in the right place at the right time when Aaron Rodgers scrambled out of the pocket in the third quarter, and he was able to find paydirt for the first time this season. He's started all three games the Packers have played, but he's been targeted only three times and was on the field for just 20 of the 62 plays Green Bay ran Sunday. Robert Tonyan is the tight end to target if you're looking to scoop up a Packers tight end.

First reception of season
Lewis had one reception for four yards in Sunday's victory over the Lions.
Analysis: Lewis started for the second time in as many weeks, and although he made more of an impact than he did Week 1 he still barely registered in the box score. He's played 43 percent of the snaps through two weeks and should continue filling a regular role, but with just one target thus far the veteran isn't active enough in the passing game to draw interest from fantasy players.

Not targeted Week 1
Lewis was credited with the start in Sunday's victory over the Vikings but was not targeted in the game.
Analysis: Lewis sits atop his position on the Packers' depth chart, but he finished second to Robert Tonyan in snaps played and was limited to blocking duty in the season opener. The veteran should continue drawing starts but presumably will remain a complementary player in the offense.

Opening atop depth chart
Lewis is listed as the starting tight end on the unofficial depth chart released by the Packers on Monday night.
Analysis: The Packers have four tight ends who could see the field, but the veteran Lewis gets the honor of opening the 2020 campaign atop the depth chart. Lewis was credited with 11 starts a year ago but caught only 15 passes, so don't assume his standing means he will play a fantasy-friendly role. He does figure to see plenty of snaps, though, given his run-blocking prowess.

Staying in Green Bay
Lewis agreed to a one-year, $2.25 million contract with the Packers on Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Lewis was on the open market for a few hours, but he's decided to stick with the Packers for a third straight year. The 35-year-old tight end finished 2019 with 15 receptions for 156 yards and a touchdown. With Jimmy Graham having left for Chicago, Lewis temporarily sits atop the depth chart at tight end, but it would be surprising if he led the position group in snaps in 2020. He'll likely face competition from Jace Sternberger and Robert Tonyan throughout the offseason program and training…read more

Wants to keep playing
Lewis, who caught 15 passes for 156 yards and a touchdown over 16 regular-season games in 2019, relayed that he wants to continue playing and would like to stick in Green Bay, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Lewis hauled in two passes for 14 yards in the NFC Championship Game loss to the 49ers as well. He's set to be an unrestricted free agent in March, and he'll turn 36 years old in May. The veteran tight end said he felt like he found his groove in head coach Matt LaFleur's offense. While Lewis won't have a big pass-catching role at this age, the Packers could benefit from re-signing him if they decide to cut Jimmy Graham, which would save nearly $9 million against the cap.

One reception in victory
Lewis caught his only target for two yards in Monday's victory over the Vikings.
Analysis: Lewis played as many snaps as fellow tight end Jimmy Graham in Week 16, but he finished with one reception and a single digit in the receiving yards column for the fourth week in a row. He'll continue seeing plenty of time on the field, but figures to remain a complementary piece in the Packers' offense.

Leads Packers tight ends in snaps
Lewis led Packers tight ends with 32 snaps and caught one pass for six yards in Sunday's victory over the Bears.
Analysis: Lewis and Jimmy Graham were both credited with a start Week 15, and the former ended up playing more snaps than the latter and any other Packers tight end for the second week in a row. While Lewis is spending more time on the field, the increase in plays has not led to any notable change in his output: he totaled two receptions for 11 yards over the last two weeks. Graham remains the top pass-catching option among Green Bay's tight ends.

First touchdown as Packer
Lewis was targeted twice and caught a one-yard touchdown in Sunday's victory over the Giants.
Analysis: Quarterback Aaron Rodgers, via Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, spoke recently about his desire to add Lewis to the list of players he has thrown a touchdown pass to, and he did just that Week 13, connecting with Lewis in the end zone for the first time since Lewis joined the Packers in 2018. The touchdown was Lewis' only reception over the last four games, so fantasy players should not expect much from him Week 14, even against a Washington defense that has struggled with opposing tight ends…read more
