Player: Jesse James

Position: Tight End

Experience: 4

Free Agent Status: Unrestricted

2018 Salary Cap Hit: $1,959,228

2018 Season Breakdown:

2018 was Jesse James’ best season as a complete player, the two biggest developments being his emergent consistency as a blocker, complete with a greater physical element, as well as his improved ‘feel’ for the play as it breaks down, putting himself in positions for Ben Roethlisberger to hit him for big plays in empty space.

There’s no other way to explain how you could go from averaging 8.
