There's few guys in this league that can go up and get balls like Tee can and I'm talking about snagging balls in another atmosphere, far above any DB. It really just expands the vertical space on the field with those "go up and get" timing patterns that have changed the outcomes of games, not to mention "pick your poison".
Joe sees several teams in this league that do have excellent 1-2 WR's, and an excellent TE and really good defenders. Why can't we is the battle cry that Joe is directing to MB and Katie and Troy.
Most definitely, when Tee DOES play, he is just reaching his prime as far as a player. He will miss a lot of games though as we have seen.
It is a tricky situation, I wish what I said earlier could be in the cards with somewhat of an incentive laden contract for Tee if we do extend him
where he would get paid much more for staying healthy. That way he would be worth the 26+ mil or whatever he will command.
Tee is about as good as it gets snatching the ball out of the air above DB's and Ja'Marr and him are the best duo in the NFL when both are
healthy with Joe Burrow. Tee is also proven when he does play which is why I understand the ones wanting Tee back.
I also understand the other side wanting to upgrade the Defense the most and honestly this is where I lean, but I cannot doubt Tee as far as
the player when he is on the field.
