Hopeful finish Bryant caught one of three targets for nine yards in Week 18's 21-16 win over the Bengals. Impact Bryant saw his three-game touchdown streak end, but the second-year tight end had a pair of red-zone targets, giving him five looks inside the 20 over the final four weeks of the season. He didn't pop much in 2021, settling in as the third tight end, but he managed to post numbers similar to his mildly surprising rookie campaign of 2020, when he out-snapped veteran David Njoku. The three touchdowns in the final quarter of the season helped. Looking ahead to 2022, both he and starting tight end Austin Hooper are under contract and there's talk that the Browns will bring back Njoku. That would mean little change among the position group. If Njoku doesn't return, then Bryant takes on a larger role next season.
