Summary

Tight End Rank: #55All Players: #373

Ellison didn't get a ton of work in the passing game, having seven receptions for 65 yards, but made his mark as a blocker and special teams player. He should see his role increase some this season. The Vikings like Ellison and will give him chances at tight end and fullback. Ellison is a willing blocker and solid receiver. He runs pretty good routes and can get separation because of his speed. Ellison does lack a little speed, though, but seems to have enough for the tight end spot.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Ellison should get more work and could really increase his totals but probably not enough to be much of a help for fantasy teams. We could see a game with around 25 receptions for 300 yards and a score or two.

Jan 27 09:13 pm

Minnesota Vikings TE Rhett Ellison caught seven passes for 65 yards in 2012, and spent a lot of time on special teams coverage units. He is viewed as a hard-nosed and highly competitive player who should only see his role continue to grow, especially if TE John Carlson (knee) is not back.
