TE Duds

Tyler Eifert-Cincinnati Bengals: The Bengals threw for over 300 yards, but none of them came to Eifert.  Eifert was targeted three times but didn’t catch any passes finishing with the bagel on Sunday.

Kyle Rudolph-Minnesota Vikings: Rudolph was targeted a team-high five times in the Vikings win over the Chargers, but he only finished with two catches for 14 yards.  Minnesota went run-heavy leaving very little work for any in the Vikings’ passing game.

Zach Ertz-Philadelphia Eagles: The Eagles passing game wasn’t clicking even though they did end up getting their first win of the season.  Ertz was targeted only twice in week 3 finishing with two catches for 30 yards.

Jared Cook-St. Louis Rams: Cook was one of the value tight ends that I liked a lot coming into the weekend, but he failed to deliver catching just one pass for seven yards despite a great matchup.
