News: Falcons newly signed TE Reggie Kelly, acquired after a knee injury to Justin Peelle, wont play against Jacksonville Friday, Falcons coach Mike Smith said. Well try to get him in next week, Smith said. Kelly was acquired on Tuesday.
Analysis: Kelly doesn't have an injury he's dealing with, but the team is likely holding him out because he can only have minimal knowledge of the playbook sing he was just signed. Keep an eye on his progress later on, as he competes for the No. 2 TE job. Kelly doesn't warrant much Fantasy value for now, so ignore him on Draft Day.
News: The Falcons announced Tuesday that they signed TE Reggie Kelly to a contract.
Analysis: Kelly came into the league as a second-round pick with the Falcons in 1999. He has been with the Bengals since 2003, but he has been primarily a blocking TE. He will provide the Falcons with depth, but even if he makes the roster Kelly is not worth owning in Fantasy.
News: Former Bengals TE Reggie Kelly declined the Steelers one-year offer of a minimum veterans contract to compete for their No. 2 job, and he decided to remain retired, reported the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Analysis: Kelly was a good blocking tight end in his NFL career but never a reliable Fantasy option.
News: The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that Bengals TE Reggie Kelly, who will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, probably will not return in 2011 after signing a one-year deal last season.
Analysis: Kelly has minimal Fantasy value no matter he plays. Keep an eye on his status heading into 2011, but ignore him in all leagues on Draft Day.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly matched a career-high with four catches in a Week 14 loss at Pittsburgh. Kelly only managed 15 yards, however.
Analysis: Kelly actually started on Sunday against the Steelers after Jermaine Gresham missed practice all week following the death of his grandmother. Kelly will go back to his backup job in Week 15 against the Browns and remains a non-factor in Fantasy play.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly managed just one catch for 9 yards in Week 2 against the Ravens. It was his only target of the game. He had no catches in the opener against New England.
Analysis: Kelly is in his 12th NFL season, but Cincy keeps him around these days as a mentor to rookie TE Jermaine Gresham, who is being groomed to be a star for the Bengals. It's nice Kelly is able to resume his career after missing 2009 with an injury, but he is not worth owning in Fantasy. The Bengals play the Panthers in Week 3.
News: The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that Bengals rookie TE Jermaine Gresham could open the season as the starter if he's signed and in training camp no later than the third day. That would put Reggie Kelly on the bench, but if Gresham is a holdout then Kelly could open the season as the starter. Chase Coffman is likely the No. 3 TE on the depth chart, but he could be used in two tight-end sets along with Gresham since Kelly is more known for his blocking ability.
Analysis: Kelly is more of a blocker than a receiver, and he's not expected to see many targets even if he starts as long as Gresham is healthy. Ignore Kelly in all leagues on Draft Day.
News: The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that Bengals TE Reggie Kelly was able to practice during Thursday's OTA workout. Kelly was pretty much healed from his Achilles' injury when he re-signed on May 13, but coach Marvin Lewis felt like a two-week conditioning stint would be best.
Analysis: Kelly is more of a blocker than a receiver, and he will compete with rookie Jermaine Gresham and second-year TE Chase Coffman for playing time. But Kelly has minimal Fantasy value. Ignore him in all leagues on Draft Day.
News: The Bengals re-signed TE Reggie Kelly on Thursday. Kelly ruptured his left Achilles' tendon last summer and missed all of the 2009 season. The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that after becoming an unrestricted free agent March 5, Kelly has not worked out with the team but will return next week to resume working out. He did have a workout for the team on April 7 to see how much progress he was making. Kelly is hoping to be able to run routes and work with the team either late in the on-field coaching sessions or during the June 15-17 minicamp. His goal is to get some of the rust knocked off by training camp in late July. "We've both agreed to take it slow and not rush things. I know it will take some time to get in football shape and we want to err on the side of caution," Kelly said. He will likely compete for a backup spot behind rookie Jermaine Gresham.
Analysis: Kelly is more of a blocker than a receiver. This is a good move for the Bengals, but Kelly has minimal Fantasy value. Ignore him in all leagues on Draft Day.
News: Even with the Bengals selecting TE Jermaine Gresham in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft, the team is still working to sign veteran (and much beloved) TE Reggie Kelly. Kelly ruptured an Achilles' tendon last summer and missed all of the 2009 season. "Reggie and I talk every day," head coach Marvin Lewis said. "I'd like to have Reggie Kelly back. Hopefully it gets worked out in pretty short order."
Analysis: Kelly would serve as a blocking tight end, just as he has for much of his career. He wouldn't be expected to post many stats, so Fantasy owners could pass on him easily.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly, who ruptured the Achilles' tendon in his left leg during training camp, is ahead of schedule in his recovery and hopes to be jogging within a month. The tight end expects to play next year.
Analysis: Kelly finished third on the team in receiving last season with 31 catches for 207 yards. Kelly wasn't worth owning in Fantasy play to begin with.
News: Following a ruptured Achilles' tendon suffered early on in training camp, the Bengals placed TE Reggie Kelly on injured reserve on Wednesday. He won't play this season.
Analysis: Kelly finished third on the team in receiving last season with 31 catches for 207 yards. The injury opens the way for Ben Utecht and rookie Chase Coffman to take a larger role. Utecht was hurt last season as he caught only 16 passes. Kelly wasn't worth owning in Fantasy play to begin with.
News: The Bengals sustained their first significant injury of training camp Monday when tight end Reggie Kelly ruptured his Achilles' tendon, a notable setback to an offense that finished last in the NFL. Kelly hurt his left leg during a morning practice and will have surgery on Wednesday. He is expected to be sidelined for at least six months, putting him out for the season. It is the first major injury for Kelly, an 11-year veteran who has spent six seasons with Cincinnati. The injury occurred when the tight end moved sideways during a non-contact drill. "It's very unfortunate," offensive coordinator Bob Bratkowski said. "We lost a very good player who is a true professional, a leader and a gentleman. There's nothing we can do about it. It's a freak thing. We have to face it, go forward and find a way."
Analysis: Kelly finished third on the team in receiving last season with 31 catches for 207 yards. The injury opens the way for Ben Utecht and rookie Chase Coffman to take a larger role. Utecht was hurt last season as he caught only 16 passes. Kelly wasn't worth owning in Fantasy play to begin with.
News: Bengals tight end Reggie Kelly hurt his left foot during practice and was on crutches afterward. The extent of the injury was not immediately clear. The official team Web site called it a "serious" Achilles' injury that resulted in Kelly leaving the facility with an ice pack taped to his left foot.
Analysis: Kelly doesn't so much for stats, so Fantasy owners won't mind if he's out for a while. But he's a key blocker for the Bengals, so his loss might be felt in other ways. We'll keep you posted.
News: Bengals WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh, TE Reggie Kelly, TE Nate Lawrie, WR Glenn Holt, TE Brad St. Louis, FB/TE Daniel Coats, RB Chris Perry and QB Jordan Palmer all dressed for Cincinnati's Week 16 win over the Browns, but failed to record an offensive statistic.
Analysis: The weather really contributed to Houshmandzadeh not catching a ball on Sunday as QB Ryan Fitzpatrick only attempted nine passes. He is the only guy in this list with any Fantasy value.
News: Cincinnati TE Reggie Kelly caught one pass for three yards in Week 15's win over the Redskins.
Analysis: Kelly has 29 catches for 198 yards this season for the Bengals. Those aren't bad numbers for him but it is certainly not worth using in Fantasy in Week 16 at Cleveland. He made three grabs against the Browns in Week 4 for 21 yards.
News: Cincinnati TE Reggie Kelly caught three passes for seven yards in Week 14's 35-3 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Kelly has yet to find the end zone this season and with the QB situation in Cincinnati, it isn't going to happen anytime soon unless on a fluke. Do not start him in Week 15 against the Washington Redskins.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly, averaging three receptions over his last four games, had only one for eight yards Week 13 against the Ravens.
Analysis: Even though Kelly gets fairly consistent receptions, he never gets many yards. He remains nothing more than a last resort in Fantasy and should remain on waivers Week 14 at Indianapolis.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly led the Bengals with 41 receiving yards on three catches Week 12 at Pittsburgh. The 41 yards represented a season high.
Analysis: Kelly didn't have a Fantasy-relevant performance with the 41 yards, so he obviously hasn't had a Fantasy-relevant performance all season. Leave him on waivers for Week 13 against the Ravens.
News: Cincinnati TE Reggie Kelly caught three passes for 24 yards in Week 11's 13-all tie with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Analysis: Kelly has nine catches in his last three games and 21 for the entire season. Still, Kelly shares time at the TE spot with Ben Utecht in Cincy and has no Fantasy value. The Bengals are at Pittsburgh in Week 12 on Thursday night.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly made two catches for eight yards in a Week 9 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Kelly shares time at the TE spot with Ben Utecht in Cincy and has no Fantasy value. The Bengals are off in Week 10.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly caught four passes for 34 yards in Sunday's 35-6 drubbing at the hands of the Houston Texans in Week 8.
Analysis: Kelly had his first multi-catch game since September and is not a recommended Fantasy tight end as the Bengals face Jacksonville in Week 9.
News: The following Bengals did not record an offensive statistic in Week 7 against Pittsburgh: TE Reggie Kelly, LS/TE Brad St. Louis, TE Nate Lawrie, TE Daniel Coats and WR Andre Caldwell.
Analysis: None of the players on this list should be considered viable Fantasy option. They are not in a position to contribute regular stats as they aren't in line for regular playing time. They've got some depth chart climbing to do and should be left on the waiver wire.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly, WR Glenn Holt, RB Kenny Watson, TE Brad St. Louis, WR Antonio Chatman, TE Daniel Coats and QB Jordan Palmer all dressed, but failed to record an offensive stat Week 6 at N.Y. Jets.
Analysis: Kelly and Watson have been disappointing offensive players for the Bengals in 2008 and they are no longer considered key players. Most of these guys are reserves for the Bengals and have little to no Fantasy value heading into Week 7 against the Steelers.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly caught one pass for one yard on Sunday in Week 5 against Dallas.
Analysis: Kelly shares the tight end position with Ben Utecht. For now, don't plan on using Kelly in most leagues. The Bengals play at the Jets in Week 6.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly had three catches for 21 yards Sunday against the Browns.
Analysis: Kelly shares the tight end position with Ben Utecht. For now, don't plan on using Kelly in most leagues. The Bengals play at Dallas in Week 5, so keep Kelly reserved.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly caught four passes for 22 yards in Week 3 at the Giants.
Analysis: Kelly got more passes thrown his way than normal with Ben Utecht inactive and may have created himself a chance for more targets down the road. But until he can prove consistently productive, he's not a recommended Fantasy starter. Even if you decide to take a flier on him, leave him reserved in all leagues for Week 4 against Cleveland.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly (head) is listed as probable for Week 3 at N.Y. Giants. Kelly has practiced in full Thursday and Friday after sitting out Wednesday. He is expected to start since TE Ben Utecht (chest) is listed as doubtful.
Analysis: Kelly has seen a few throws come his way in 2008, but he is still asked to block more than catch. Until that changes, it's safe to ignore Kelly in most Fantasy formats.
News: The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that Bengals TE Ben Utecht, who left Week 2's loss to the Titans with a chest injury, is likely to be out for at least a few games.
Analysis: Utecht was sharing time at TE with Reggie Kelly, but now Kelly looks to have the No. 1 job to his own for at least a week or two. Utecht is barely worth holding on to in leagues that require two TEs, but you could do worse for a No. 3 option. As for Kelly, he remains a low-end No. 2 Fantasy TE at best.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly, filling in for the injured Ben Utecht, caught three passes for 14 yards in a loss to the Titans in Week 2.
Analysis: Depending on the status of Utecht, who left Sunday's game on the first play with a chest injury, Kelly could get the start in Week 3 at the Giants. Still, he'll need to show he can perform on a consistent basis before he's worth considering picking up in Fantasy play.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly finished as the team's third leading receiver Week 1 against the Ravens with his 15 receiving yards. He only caught one of the three passes thrown his way by QB Carson Palmer.
Analysis: Kelly started the game at tight end for Cincinnati, but his backup -- Ben Utecht -- actually had more receptions. Kelly has never been a Fantasy friendly player and that isn't expected to change in 2008, especially since Utecht is in town. Kelly is not a recommended Fantasy option Week 2 against the Titans.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly started 15 games in 2007 and caught 20 passes for 211 yards. He did not score a touchdown.
Analysis: Kelly is the starting tight end for the Bengals, but QB Carson Palmer doesn't look in his direction often. Consider Kelly a bye-week replacement at best, but don't plan on drafting Kelly in any Fantasy leagues in 2008.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly had one catch for 24 yards Sunday against the Browns.
Analysis: Kelly is a low-end Fantasy TE and should not be used in Week 17 at Miami.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly, RB Jeremi Johnson, TE Brad St. Louis and QB Ryan Fitzpatrick didn't record statistics Week 15 at San Francisco.
Analysis: These players don't do enough statistically on a week-to-week basis to merit Fantasy consideration. Leave them on waivers for Week 16 against the Browns.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly had a 3-yard catch vs. the Rams in Week 14.
Analysis: Kelly doesn't post enough stats to warrant use in Fantasy play. The Bengals visit the 49ers in Week 15.

News: The Bengals inactives for Week 10 at Baltimore include TE Reggie Kelly, DB Herana-Daze Jones, DL John Thornton, LB Anthony Schlegel, LB Caleb Miller and QB Jeff Rowe (3rd QB).
Analysis: None of these players have any Fantasy value and should be kept reserved in all leagues.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly (knee) is doubtful for Week 10 at Baltimore. Kelly did not practice all week. If he doesn't play, Daniel Coates will likely start in his place.
Analysis: Kelly, who has 11 catches for 131 yards and zero touchdowns in eight games, is not an integral part of the Bengals offense and has little to no Fantasy value when healthy. It appears as though he will not play against the Ravens.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly made two grabs for 15 yards in Cincinnati's 33-21 loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 9.
Analysis: The Bengals don't utilize the TE enough to make Kelly any use in Fantasy play, so leave him alone in Week 10 when Cincinnati visits Baltimore.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly had one catch for 5 yards Sunday against the Steelers.
Analysis: Kelly has minimal Fantasy value and should not be used in Week 9 against Buffalo.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly caught three passes for 45 yards Week 6 at Kansas City.

News: Reggie Kelly, who entered the game with three catches in three games, had two receptions for 41 yards in Week 4 against the Patriots.
Analysis: Despite a decent yardage total, Kelly has just minimal Fantasy appeal heading into Week 6 at Kansas City. The Bengals are off in Week 5.
News: Notable Bengals players from Week 3 at Seattle include: FB Jeremi Johnson (12-yard carry), WR Skyler Green (1-yard rush, 15 yards receiving), TE Daniel Coats (10-yard catch) and TE Reggie Kelly (4-yard catch).
Analysis: None of these players should be considered for standard Fantasy use. The Bengals play vs. New England in Week 4.
News: Bengals WRs Skyler Green and Reggie Kelly, TE Daniel Coats and RB Kenny Watson all tallied one catch each in Cincinnati's 51-45 loss at Cleveland in Week 2.
Analysis: QB Carson Palmer spread the love in Week 2 and all four of these guys benefited. However, none of them see enough of the field to be worthy of any consideration Fantasy-wise.
News: Bengals TE Reggie Kelly caught a pass for 13 yards during the Bengals' 27-20 win against the Ravens in Week 1.
Analysis: Kelly starts and plays often, but is more of a blocker than a receiver and is good for at best 50 yards per game. Don't consider him a top tight end, and don't play him Week 2 at the Browns.
News: The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that TE Reggie Kelly turned down more money from other clubs to stay with the Bengals after talking to QB Carson Palmer. "To be honest, the deciding factor was our quarterback," Kelly said. "He gave me a call and told me how much he wanted me to come back. ... (Palmer) is a great quarterback and a great teammate, and he has a future as a lawyer." Kelly has signed a three-year deal.
Analysis: Kelly starts and plays often, but is more of a blocker than a receiver and is good for at best 50 yards per game. Don't consider him to be a top tight end in 2007 Fantasy play.
News: Several Bengals pitched in against Pittsburgh, including RB Kenny Watson (four catches for 19 yards), TE Reggie Kelly (one catch for 4 yards) and TE Tony Stewart (two catches for 4 yards and a touchdown).

News: Notable Bengals players from Week 10 include: RB Chris Perry (31 yards rushing, minus-1 yard receiving), TE Reggie Kelly (31 yards receiving), TE Tony Stewart (26-yard catch) and RB Kenny Watson (14 receiving yards).
Analysis: Of these players, only Perry is worth owning as an insurance policy for Rudi Johnson. Fantasy owners shouldn't bother with the rest of these players.
News: Bengals WR Kelley Washington (hamstring) is out, LB Brian Simmons (neck) and DB Kevin Kaesviharn (knee) are doubtful, while DL Sam Adams (knee), TE Reggie Kelly (back) and DB Tory James (knee) are listed as probable for Week 10 vs. San Diego.

Well, supposedly Reeves is all gung-ho about starting Kelly along with veteran TE O.J. Santiago. Interesting. The real question is, why did they spend that high pick on another TE when they have such obvious needs at wide receiver and the offensive line?
Analysis:
