"Trey McBride is the best tight end in the league right now." @LarryFitzgerald https://t.co/l3pey84onp Via @NFLonCBS on X

What happened: NFL on CBS aired Fitzgerald's assessment during the 2026 regular season. It follows McBride's Week 3 Angry Runs recognition.

Why it matters: Endorsements from all-time receivers shape the midseason positional debate. McBride also drew recent attention for a stiff arm against the 49ers.

What to watch: McBride's October production will test the lofty billing.
