2023 Fantasy Outlook
Kieft proved as good as advertised as a blocker after his sixth-round selection in 2022, with the University of Minnesota product often operating as an extra offensive lineman during his 256 snaps from scrimmage. Kieft also recorded seven receptions for 80 yards and a touchdown over 17 games, and he projects to once again operate primarily in a blocking role during the coming season while Cade Otton profiles as the top pass-catching tight end.

RANKS
Quiet in second season
Kieft brought in one of five targets for a two-yard touchdown reception while playing in 16 regular-season and two postseason games for the Buccaneers in 2023.
ANALYSIS
Kieft once again served almost exclusively as a blocking tight end, but to an even greater extent than he did during his rookie 2022 campaign, when he posted a 7-80-1 receiving line on 10 targets. The 26-year-old's only stats from scrimmage came in the Buccaneers' Week 15 win over the Packers. Kieft should occupy the same role and continue to also contribute to multiple special-teams units during his third season with Tampa Bay in 2024.
