Best I can tell between Cincinnati/Hamilton County/Ohio he's paying an extra 5.6% income tax (on top of the federal that applies to both Ohio and Florida). On $4.75m that would roughly be around a $266,000 difference.

I agree it's probably knowing he'll both catch passes from Burrow and get paid big next offseason because he's better than Uzomah and Hurst who both got good money after being here that's the big decider for him. (Plus a better chance at winning than with the Dolphins probably doesn't hurt.)

May be his thought process but Gesicki diminishes the same opportunities as Hurst & Uzoman
