START ‘EM – TE

player. 56. . Tight End. Bengals. C.J. Uzomah. 4

With Tyler Eifert out, C.J. Uzomah is worth a pick up in some leagues and this week, he’s even worth throwing into your starting lineup if you don’t have anyone better. He didn’t have a great game last week (the first with Eifert being out as the starting tight end), but the Steelers have gotten shredded by tight ends this year.

With the match-up being favorable and Andy Dalton doing a good job at spreading the football around, Uzomah could do well this week. He’s also a big candidate in the “Bust” category as well, so tread caution if you decide to roll with him.

Uzomah had just two catches for 43 yards last week in what ended up being a 27-point comeback for the Bengals. This week he might be given a more expanded role, especially being against a pitiful Steelers defense.
