The NFL’s best tight ends, No. 7: Tyler Eifert, Bengals

Eifert should be a force upon his return from the injury he sustained in the Pro Bowl.

Eifert’s string of injuries continued when he hurt his ankle in the Pro Bowl, requiring surgery that will force him to miss some games early this season. When he returns, the Bengals will get one of the most versatile tight ends in the game who happened to lead his position with 13 touchdowns in 2015. Eifert possesses that great spatial awareness necessary to be a real threat in the red zone, and he should be a force upon his return.
