Tight Ends: Veteran Reggie Kelly is a trusted piece of Marvin Lewis’s offense, more of a blocking tight end , but he fits well in the Bengals power run formations. Veteran Ben Utech was signed last year in free agency from the Colts, he didn’t produce very well last year and was injured for most of the season.
Reggie Kelly is entering the final year of his contract and Ben Utech hasn’t proven he is durable enough yet, that could be why the Bengals opted to draft a TE in the 3rd in the form of Rookie Chase Coffman. If Chase shines this year it is likely that Reggie Kelly would be expendable and not brought back for the 2010 season.
Coffman is known more for his circus fingertip catches, and sure hand more than his pass blocking ability, if he wants to see playing time immediately then he better get used to blocking in the AFC North.
