Great article on him on The Athletic..

Film study: How Will Dissly is making all the right moves...

Dissly has so far caught 23 balls on 13 different route patterns. That is some awesome versatility that a bunch of receivers don't have.

Let's hope he can stay healthy. He's so much more reliable than Graham was, despite not having Graham's measurables.

If you watch football then you should know who Will Dissly is there aren't many TEs in the league with numbers. He is doing well but I think with Will is that opposing teams are stacking the box trying to contain the run and Wilson which leaves Dissly, Lockett, and Metcalf 1 on 1 I think we have one of the best downfield throw/catch percentage in the league

Honestly, this has been a gripe of mine with the offense so far. If other teams want to stack the box, make them pay. I don't care if it is the 1st play of the game or the last. Exploit their weakness, rather than trying to dominate them with your strength. Especially when you have one of the best QBs in the league.

i get you completely, 43 rushing plays to 23 passes when the box is stacked to stop the run against the Rams.

Dissly is #7 in Rec by TE, #7 in yds, #9 in YDS per Game, #1 in TD's

Not bad for someone that has only played 9 games total. He is still really a rookie based on Games played in a 16 game season.

yes he is and what makes his receiving numbers crazy is they say he goes out on routes only 43% of the time the other 57% he is blocking.

Kids looking good so far. Could be another gem PC/JS found in the 5th round.

How bad is it ?

I heard it was achilles. Basically done for the year (is what I read). We get Dickson back soon, but Dickson is not a future franchise player... Dissly looked like he was. :(

Can we have Vannett back please? We need him big time now. Well lets hope Jacob Hollister shows a spark and proves himself worthy of getting him.

Sucks he suffered another injury, but if anyone comes back strong I think it'll be him.

After he suffered that knee injury last year, many didn't anticipate he'd be ready for the 2019 regular season. He came back from one of the worst knee injuries you can have. Don't know what it is about the guy but he seems to recover quickly.

Is there an update on his Achilles injury? Is it a season ender or is there a chance he just misses a few weeks? I haven't heard anything on this yet. I assume season ending because it's an Achilles but maybe I'm wrong?

He's done for the year.

They picked up Swopes today.
