He didn't really pop in camp, not sure how ready he really is to do much as a rookie.

Maybe that's a good sign. Guys who "pop" in camp often end up on the practice squad or playing in a different league. Give me "reliable and physically capable" over camp hype any day of the week.

He's playing TE with the 1s his rookie year when the team already has Travis Kelce and a pretty established player in Noah Gray.
This is the position that has had two 1000 yard rookies since 1960: Mike Ditka and Kyle Pitts. And I think we all know that Pitts was force fed all of his yards. He'll probably do as much as most rookie TEs do, particularly among guys who aren't the main TE. |

They wouldn't be doing that if he wasn't "popping." He gives them some things Noah Gray can't, namely a big, seam-stretcher who is a vertical threat. KC was clearly trying to add that back to the TE room between Wiley and Irv Smith. |
