This 6’6” 247 Lb. pass catching tight end, who has been highly praised for his pass catching ability, but also heavily scrutinized for his blocking ability (or should I say lack there of).
All last week all I heard was the organization, teammates and coaches making sure that everyone was aware that Mike Gesicki has been staying after class to work on his blocking technique and ability. I for one was extremely glad to hear this, because I just finished watching the 2017 Fiesta Bowl to see why the tight end’s blocking was in question, and, ‘Oh, my, God’ (hands over face shaking my head).
