Erick All Expected To Miss 2025 Season

By Jared Smola | Updated on Tue, 28 Jan 2025, 6:46 PM EST

Bengals TE Erick All is expected to miss the entire 2025 season after re-tearing his right ACL in November, according to The Athletic's Paul Dehner. All originally tore that ACL while at Iowa in 2023 and had lingering issues that "left a risk of reinjury once reaching the NFL," Dehner writes. This latest injury will require two surgeries -- the first is already done but the second will happen later this offseason. "This process should set All up for the long term of his career with expectations to hit the ground running in the 2026 season," per Dehner.

Dynasty Impact

All had an encouraging rookie season, quickly earning a significant role in a strong Bengals passing game. Dehner even writes that Cincinnati "started reforming the offense around his unique blocking and receiving abilities."

But he'll provide nothing for fantasy teams in 2025, and there are questions about his effectiveness in 2026 and beyond after this second significant knee injury. All also suffered a back injury in 2022 that required surgery.

He's droppable in dynasty leagues that don't have multiple IR spots.

2025 Fantasy Impact

The Bengals have a hole at TE with All out for 2025 and Mike Gesicki set to hit free agency in March. We'll see if they bring Gesicki back and/or make an addition at the position.

Gesicki finished just 19th among TEs in PPR points per game last year and was really only a bankable fantasy play when WR Tee Higgins was out.
