Tanner Hudson has been targeted on half of his routes vs zone coverage since being elevated to the active roster in Week 9
Updated Thu, Dec 7 at 2:34pm -
Notches four receptions in loss
Hudson played 13 of the Bengals' 43 snaps on offense and finished with four catches for 18 yards on five targets in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: The Bengals opened with Drew Sample (one catch for an 11-yard touchdown) and Mitchell Wilcox (one catch for one yard) as their starting tight ends, but Hudson ended up outproducing both players as well as Irv Smith (two catches for eight yards) in terms of pure volume in the passing game. Hudson looks to be Cincinnati's top pass-catching tight end, but his ceiling is limited by him having to share snaps with three other options at the position as well as having the relatively unproven Jake…read more

Four more catches
Hudson had four catches for 49 yards on four targets in Thursday's loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Hudson played 21 snaps as his workload continues to increase, despite both Irv Smith and Drew Sample being healthy.

Six grabs in loss
Hudson secured six of seven targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Texans.
Analysis: Hudson's seven targets were his most of the season and led all Bengals tight ends. Three of Cincinnati's tight ends split the playing time in fairly even fashion Week 10, with Hudson, Irv Smith and Drew Sample playing 20, 21 and 23 snaps, respectively. With 12 targets over the Bengals' past two games, Hudson appears to be the most fantasy-friendly option among the three tight ends in question, though his upside is still relatively modest while he shares snaps.

Surprise contributions
Hudson had four catches for 45 yards on five targets in Sunday night's win over the Bills.
Analysis: This production came completely out of the blue from Hudson, as he had been inactive the three previous games and only signed from the practice squad on Wednesday. But the Bengals got production from all three tight ends in the passing game, seeing an opening against the Bills.

Joins Cincy's 53-man roster
The Bengals signed Hudson off their practice squad Wednesday.
Analysis: Hudson was elevated from the practice squad in Weeks 3 and 4 while Irv Smith dealt with a hamstring injury, and the 6-foot-5 tight end held his own with four catches for 48 yards on six targets between those two games. The 30 receiving yards Hudson compiled Week 3 are more than Smith has had in any game this season. Smith also lost a fumble in this past Sunday's win over the 49ers, so perhaps Hudson can carve out a sizable pass-catching role if the Cincinnati coaching staff is unhappy with…read more

Reverts to practice squad
Hudson reverted to Cincinnati's practice squad Monday.
Analysis: Hudson caught both of his targets for 18 yards during the Bengals' loss to the Titans on Sunday while helping fill in for Irv Smith (hamstring). The 28-year-old led all Cincinnati tight ends in snaps and could get called up again for the Week 5 game against the Cardinals if Smith is forced to miss time.

Joins active roster
The Bengals elevated Hudson to their active roster Saturday.
Analysis: This marks the second week in a row that Hudson has been promoted from the team's practice squad. He filled in Week 3 against the Rams with Irv Smith (hamstring) ruled out and finished as the top pass-catching tight end with two catches on four targets for 30 yards. He played 36 offensive snaps in Week 3, more than fellow tight ends Drew Sample and Mitchell Wilcox, and could see that same usage against the Titans on Sunday, with Smith being ruled out for the second straight week.

Reverts to Bengals' practice squad
Hudson reverted to Cincinnati's practice squad after Monday's 19-16 win versus the Rams.
Analysis: With regular starter Irv Smith (hamstring) out, Hudson came up from the practice squad to serve as Cincinnati's top pass-catching tight end in Week 3, hauling in two of four targets for 30 yards. He actually played more snaps (36) than Drew Sample (34) and Mitchell Wilcox (32), so if Smith remains out for Week 4 at Tennessee, expect Hudson to get called up again.

Joins active roster Monday
The Bengals elevated Hudson from their practice squad to their active roster ahead of Monday's game versus the Rams.
Analysis: With Irv Smith (hamstring) doubtful for Week 3, Cincinnati saw fit to bring up another option at tight end. He's behind Drew Sample and Mitchell Wilcox on the depth chart, but those players are better blockers than pass catchers, so Hudson could be further up in line for targets than meets the eye.

Brought back by Bengals
The Bengals signed Hudson to their practice squad Wednesday.
Analysis: Hudson has bounced around the league in four professional seasons, though he's coming off his best year in 2022 when he posted 10 receptions for 132 yards with the Giants. The Bengals have a deep skill-position group overall but are thin at tight end, so Hudson could see time with the team at some point in 2023.

Let go by Cincinnati
The Bengals released Hudson on Tuesday.
Analysis: Hudson sustained a concussion during the Bengals' preseason opener but appears to have moved past the issue since he wasn't let go with an injury designation. He'll attempt to find another opportunity ahead of the 2023 season.

Exits with concussion
Hudson exited Friday's exhibition contest against the Packers after suffering a concussion and will not return.
Analysis: Hudson was seeing plenty of action prior to the injury, as he had accumulated four receptions for 29 yards before exiting late in the second quarter. He will now need to clear the league's concussion protocol before returning to practice going forward. The fifth-year tight end is competing for a depth role with the club this year.

Signs future deal
The Bengals signed Hudson to a reserve/future contract Tuesday.
Analysis: Hudson joined the Bengals' practice squad at the beginning of December after being waived by the Giants. He made 11 straight appearances for New York to start the season, totaling 10 receptions on 15 targets for 132 yards across 244 offensive snaps, but he was never elevated to Cincinnati's active roster. With his new contract, the fourth-year tight end will get to stick around the Bengals' organization and compete for a roster spot next season.

Lands in Cincinnati
Hudson signed with the Bengals' practice squad Tuesday.
Analysis: Hudson was waived by the Giants on Saturday after he made 10 catches on 15 targets for 132 yards in 11 appearances with the team. With Hayden Hurst (calf) unlikely to play Sunday against the Browns, Hudson could find himself on the active roster this weekend.

Off to waivers
The Giants waived Hudson on Saturday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
Analysis: In a corresponding move, Nick Vannett was signed to the active roster. Hudson was in the midst of a season during which he posted career highs in targets, receptions and receiving yards, but he'll now become an unrestricted free agent, assuming he isn't claimed by another team during the current waiver period.

Gets one target in Week 12
Hudson turned his lone target into a 10-yard reception in Thursday's 28-20 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: Hudson played 12 of the Giants' 59 snaps on offense while working as part of a three-man rotation at tight end that included Lawrence Cager and Chris Myarick. All three players are candidates to see their roles reduced in the Giants' Week 13 contest against the Commanders, as head coach Brian Daboll said Tuesday that he's optimistic Daniel Bellinger (eye) will be able to return to the lineup, according to Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record. Prior to missing the Giants' last four games with a…read more

Modest production in win
Hudson caught all three of his targets for 24 yards Sunday in a 24-16 victory against Houston.
Analysis: Hudson tied for the team lead with three catches and finished third with 24 receiving yards in the victory. The Giants continue to take a run-first approach, as Daniel Jones attempted only 17 passes, and his 13 completions were spread fairly evenly among six different pass catchers. Five of Hudson's eight catches this season have come in New York's past two games, but his role may be reduced in Week 11 if Daniel Bellinger (eye) is able to return.

Top option at tight end Sunday
Hudson caught three of five targets for 58 yards in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: With Daniel Bellinger sidelined due to a fractured eye socket, Hudson stepped up as the Giants' top receiving option at tight end, while Chris Myarick caught the only pass thrown his way for 10 yards. With the Giants on bye next week, Bellinger might have enough time to recover and return to action, but if he remains out Hudson could have some deep-league appeal in Week 10 against the Texans.

Active Sunday
Hudson is active for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Analysis: Hudson landed on the injury report Thursday as a non-participant due to an illness and didn't practice Friday. However, he appears to have cleared the aliment and will be good to go Sunday. The reserve tight end has caught three of five targets for 40 yards across 130 offensive snaps during the first five games of the campaign.

Questionable for Week 6
Hudson (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus Baltimore.
Analysis: Hudson apparently fell ill Thursday, and he now appears to be at risk of missing his first game action of the season Sunday. If he can't play versus the Ravens, the Giants could be forced to lean more heavily on rookie Daniel Bellinger.

Dealing with illness
Hudson did not practice Thursday due to a non-COVID related illness, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Hudson was not listed with any issues on the Giants' practice report Wednesday, and the exact nature and severity of this illness are still unknown. The backup tight end has caught three of his five targets for 40 yards through the first five games of the season, though he's played an increased percentage of the Giants' offensive snaps over the past two weeks, with 61 percent against Chicago and 45 percent against Green Bay. Hudson will have two more days to overcome this illness before…read more

Draws three targets Week 2
Hudson recorded two receptions for 23 yards on three targets in Sunday's 19-16 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: The pair of receptions were Hudson's first since the 2020 campaign, when he recorded a 3-41-0 receiving line on seven targets over 11 games for the Buccaneers. Rookie Daniel Bellinger remains the Giants' top tight end, but with snap shares barely north of 50 percent in both of his first two games, he's not necessarily entrenched atop the depth chart. Even if Hudson ends up poaching more snaps from Bellinger, the 27-year-old is still expected to primarily serve as a blocker whenever he's on the…read more

Re-signs with Giants
Hudson was re-signed by the Giants on Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Analysis: Hudson was scooped up by the Giants last week after getting cut by the 49ers. He originally failed to make it through New York's final roster cuts, but they have since opted to bring him back with both Daniel Bellinger (concussion) and Chris Myarick (foot) dealing with injuries.

Analysis: Tanner was cut by the 49ers on Tuesday, and he quickly found a new home in New York. He spent his first two seasons with the Buccaneers and recorded 67 yards on five receptions across 20 games. In 2021 he suited up for just two games with the 49ers. He is now competing for a roster spot in New York.

Shines as receiver again
Hudson secured six of seven targets for 74 yards and lost a fumble in the Buccaneers' 34-3 preseason loss to the Titans on Saturday night.
Analysis: Hudson once again paced the Buccaneers in receptions and receiving yards, and brought in a particularly impressive 25-yard pass from rookie Kyle Trask in the fourth quarter. Despite his impressive work as a receiver this preseason, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports Hudson is being given no assurances by head coach Bruce Arians, who noted after Saturday's game, "there's more to it than just catching the ball" with respect to the tight end's bid for a roster spot.

Paces pass catchers in win
Hudson secured four of seven targets for 48 yards in the Buccaneers' 19-14 preseason loss to the Bengals on Saturday night.
Analysis: The athletic tight end paced the team in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the night, turning in an impressive performance that followed some strong work in training camp practices to date. Hudson is fighting to win the No. 4 tight end job, and he took advantage of the fact that Cameron Brate was held out of action Saturday night to make a solid case for himself.

'Inside track' to fourth TE job
Hudson is considered the favorite to secure the fourth tight end job heading into the 2021 season, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The 26-year-old is expected to hold off the likes of Codey McElroy and journeyman Jerell Adams for the job barring any training camp/preseason surprises. Hudson has cobbled together a 5-67 line on 12 targets over the last two seasons, and even though he's displayed some impressive athleticism down the seam in limited action, it would presumably take an injury to the top trio of Rob Gronkowski, O.J. Howard (Achilles) and Cameron Brate (undisclosed) for him to have any chance at a consistent…read more

Quiet finish to season
Hudson failed to bring in his only target during the Buccaneers' 31-9 win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LV on Sunday.
Analysis: The second-year tight end unsurprisingly had a minimal role throughout the regular campaign, furnishing a 3-41-0 line on seven targets over 11 games with active status. Hudson ultimately was in uniform for all four of the Buccaneers' postseason contests, but Sunday's game was the first in which he saw a target. The athletic 26-year-old has shown some ability to get downfield during his time in Tampa Bay, but after playing 2020 on a one-year deal, it remains to be seen if Hudson will be brought…read more

Healthy scratch for Week 17
Hudson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Analysis: Hudson didn't miss any practice time throughout the week, but the 26-year-old will sit out his fifth game of the regular season Sunday. The backup tight end has hauled in three of his seven targets for 41 yards during his second season with the Buccaneers. Last Saturday against Detroit he played a season-high 22 offensive snaps, but he's considered a healthy scratch to close out the regular-season slate.

Sees rare opportunity Saturday
Hudson brought in his only target for a 20-yard reception in the Buccaneers' 47-7 win over the Lions on Saturday.
Analysis: The backup tight end logged a season-high 22 snaps from scrimmage in the blowout win, with the lopsided nature of the contest undoubtedly playing an integral part in his expanded opportunity. Hudson has just a 3-41 line over 11 games this season, but he could be in for some extra reps on offense again in Week 17 against the Falcons if coach Bruce Arians opts to give some of his first-unit players some rest.

Logs seven snaps in win
Hudson did not record any statistics across seven snaps from scrimmage in the Buccaneers' 46-23 win over the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: Hudson has now garnered active status in every game from Week 2 onward, although that's only led to a 2-21 line on a total of six targets. Coach Bruce Arians continues to roll with four active tight ends on most weeks, but Hudson and position mate Antony Auclair are primarily being used in a run-blocking capacity with both Rob Gronkowski and Cameron Brate healthy in front of them.

Catch-less night Week 8
Hudson failed to bring in his only target in the Buccaneers' 25-23 win over the Giants on Monday night.
Analysis: The big tight end logged just three snaps from scrimmage, so his lack of statistics was unsurprising. Hudson is a distant third in the positional pecking order behind Rob Gronkowski and Cameron Brate, and the recent activation of Antony Auclair could also serve to frequently render Hudson a gameday inactive in coming weeks.

One grab in win
Hudson brought in his only target for a 12-yard reception in the Buccaneers' 45-20 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
Analysis: The towering tight end made an impressive grab on his one catch, his second of the season overall. Hudson played on just two snaps from scrimmage overall, however, although that was only 10 fewer than position mate Cameron Brate, the player directly above him on the depth chart. Hudson does have an intriguing size/athleticism combination, so it remains to be seen if he makes a legitimate run at Brate's No. 2 role at some point during the second half of the season.

The second-year tight end saw a solid amount of targets for a player listed as third on the positional depth chart as Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Justin Watson (chest) were both sidelined, opening up extra opportunities for Tampa Bay's remaining healthy pass catchers.

Suffers possible concussion
Hudson left Sunday's game against the Lions to be evaluated for a concussion, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Makes first career catch
Hudson brought in one of two targets for 12 yards in the Buccaneers' 40-34 overtime loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.
Analysis: Hudson was active for a second straight week with O.J. Howard (hamstring) inactive again, and he was able to tally his first career grab. The athletic tight end actually out-targeted Cameron Brate, who logged only 11 snaps while still struggling with a rib injury. However, Hudson could be back to inactive status in Week 10 versus the Cardinals if Howard is able to return to action as expected.
