    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah was an offseason re-signing priority for the team as a highly-versatile player, and one beat reporter believe he could 'thrive' under the team's new coaching staff.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah took advantage of another injury-shortened season for Tyler Eifert in 2018 to post career receiving highs across the board and finish as a low-end TE2 in fantasy. If Eifert continues to battle health issues, don't be surprised if Uzomah makes a push for TE1 status.

  • Posted: 12/23/2018 1:23pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah caught four passes for 49 yards and one touchdown against the Cleveland Browns in Week 16.

    Huddle Up: He has been targeted at least five times in five of the last six games but has recorded at least 50 yards in only one game this season. He should have a favorable matchup next week and could be a low-end No. 1 tight end in deeper leagues.

  • Posted: 12/16/2018 5:00pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah posted just one catch for 27 yards on five targets in Week 15 against the Oakland Raiders.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah has devolved into a low-end TE2 working with Jeff Driskel rather than Andy Dalton. He shouldn't be rostered in most fantasy leagues heading into Week 16 in Cleveland.

  • Posted: 12/2/2018 3:14pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah registered five receptions for 33 yards on seven targets in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah has three or more grabs in four straight outings to help those in deeper PPR formats, but he hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 7 and should be avoided in most other leagues. The Bengals travel to meet the Chargers in Week 14.

  • Posted: 11/25/2018 3:58pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah racked up six catches for 39 yards on a game-high 13 targets in Week 12 against the Cleveland Browns.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah was the security blanket for Jeff Driskel when he entered the game for an injured Andy Dalton (thumb). He could see more targets in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos if Driskel is under center throwing mostly short and intermediate routes.

  • Posted: 11/24/2018 4:37pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah has a great matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 12, who have allowed the most points to the position per game in the last five weeks.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah has combined for nine targets the last two weeks, which equated to six grabs for 64 yards. It's a modest line, but it's six points per game in PPR formats. The Jaguars' futility against the position makes him a buy-low option if you're covering Travis Kelce's bye week.

  • Posted: 11/18/2018 2:58pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah caught three passes for 41 yards against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 11.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah has been targeted 13 times over the last three games but has only posted 64 yards during that span. He will continue to be the starting tight end for the Bengals but can be avoided in most leagues.

  • Posted: 11/11/2018 2:00pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah registered 23 yards on three receptions on four targets in the Week 10 game against the New Orleans Saints.

    Huddle Up: The Saints have been banged up in the receiving corps, as A.J. Green and Tyler Kroft were inactive for this one. However, Uzomah didn't do anything special and isn't worth anything more than a spot as a low-end TE2 in leagues of 12 or more teams heading into Week 11 in Baltimore.

  • Posted: 11/9/2018 2:06pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah (clavicle) was able to practice in full Friday, Nov. 9 and he was removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 10 game against the New Orleans Saints.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah is needed as Tyler Kroft (foot) is out again this week. While the Saints pass defense has been roughed up for 311.4 yards per game and 18 touchdowns, good for 31st in the NFL, the damage has been mostly wide receivers. New Orleans has allowed just 29 catches on 51 targets for 331 yards and a touchdown to opposing tight ends for the fifth-fewest fantasy points allowed against that position.

  • Posted: 11/8/2018 11:53am ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah (clavicle) logged a limited practice Thursday, No.v 8.

    Huddle Up: It remains to be seen if Uzomah will play, but he's not a recommended start if he does. The New Orleans Saints have only allowed one touchdown to the position all year and give up an average of 42.25 yards per game to tight ends.

  • Posted: 11/7/2018 2:19pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah (clavicle) was listed as a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Nov. 7.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah should be good to go for the Week 10 game against the New Orleans Saints, but check back Friday for his official injury designation. He is a borderline low-end TE1/TE2 in fantasy leagues of 14 or more teams and a decent mid-tier DFS play with a fairly attractive matchup against the NFL's 31st-ranked pass defense.

  • Posted: 10/21/2018 11:34pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah caught both of his targets for 13 yards and a touchdown in Week 7 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah 4-yard score was Cincinnati's only touchdown of the night and came on a route in which he stopped and boxed out his defender in the end zone. With Tyler Eifert out for the year and Tyler Kroft out indefinitely, Uzomah is keeping busy as the Bengals' main man between the hashes. Given the state of position this year, a capable receiving tight end who logs full-time snaps is going to have value in fantasy. He'll be a strong TE2 at the very least in Week 8 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

  • Posted: 10/19/2018 1:57pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah (shoulder) practiced in full Friday, Oct. 19 after a pair of limited practices earlier in the week, and he has been removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 7 game with the Kansas City Chiefs.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah will hold down the tight end position with Tyler Kroft (foot) ruled out and Tyler Eifert done for the season. He could be quite a nice sleeper for those looking for streaming options due to bye weeks. The Chiefs rank 31st in the NFL in passing yardage allowed.

  • Posted: 10/18/2018 11:41am ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah (shoulder) was limited during practice Thursday, Oct. 18.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah has taken over the starting job because of injuries and was targeted seven times in Week 6. He could be a low-end No. 1 tight end in deeper leagues this week against the Kansas City Chiefs but is not a must-start option.

  • Posted: 10/14/2018 3:14pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah posted six receptions for 54 yards on seven targets in Week 6 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah was holding down the fort at tight end in the Queen City with Tyler Kroft inactive due to a foot injury and Tyler Eifert done for the season. He is only worth a look as a TE2 in Week 7 in Kansas City if Kroft is sidelined again.

  • Posted: 10/7/2018 2:55pm ET

    Cincinnati Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah caught two passes for 43 yards against the Miami Dolphins in Week 5.

    Huddle Up: Uzomah has not been a big part of the passing game so far this season but could receive a bigger role with Tyler Eifert and Tyler Kroft injured. Owners could consider adding him to their roster if he takes over the starting job.
