NFL Journal: Success with tight ends should continue for Joe Flacco with Broncos (Ryan O'Halloran, The Denver Post)
In every season with the Ravens (2008-18), Flacco had at least one tight end finish among the top five in catches on the team and in seven seasons, a tight end was among the top three Ravens in catches. Todd Heap, Ed Dickson, Dennis Pitta, Dallas Clark, Benjamin Watson, and Mark Andrews all had seasons of at least 30 catches. Heap (53 in 2009), Dickson (54 in ’10), Pitta (86 in ’16) and Watson (61 in ’17) all reached more than 50 catches. And Pitta and Watson led the Ravens in catches in 2016-17.
