I care about those things, so that's at least one person.
I mentioned his athletic scores because he's not fast or agile at all for a TE, and most people want a TE who is more than just a checkdown/RZ guy and a blocker.
I get your point that it's about what he's done on the field since joining the NFL but you're not going to get much from stats/highlights of his in the NFL because he hasn't done much.
Across 40 games in 4 years, he's had just 39 receptions for 303 yards (7.8 YPR).
I'll go by longtime Steeler fans that have never missed a snap, guys like us. Tee Higgins was too slow too remember? I'm not saying the guy is great, not even good. I was simply pointing out he has had productive snaps and the Steelers fanbase felt he was a solid asset. I dont care if they cut him tomorrow, but it doesn't appear that he is some bum.
