Quick answer
BuyRucci caught 1 pass for 7 yards in 2026, ranking TE58 through 2 games. Through 2 games he sits TE58, up from TE127 — a climb, not a final rank. Played a short 2025 (1 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
