The Dolphins trailed the Bills 17-0, before storming back, largely on the heels of a pair of turnovers that Miami converted into 10 points in the waning moments of the opening frame.

By halftime, Gesicki had caught both of his targets for 15 yards and the score. This season, Gesicki caught 32 passes for 362 yards with five touchdowns, one score shy of his career-high set in 2020.

Chosen by the Dolphins in the second-round of the 2018 NFL Draft, Gesicki 129 passes for 1,481 yards with 15 touchdowns, while averaging 11.5 yards per reception during his time in a Nittany Lions uniform.
