Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah is the presumed starter for Week 5

Oct 05, 2018

Katherine Terrell said, "They'll utilize both of them but I think C.J. Uzomah has moved ahead of Tyler Kroft."

Fantasy Impact:

Terrell's educated guess falls in line with a season-long trend in these two players’ snap counts, with Uzomah seeing more playing time than Kroft in each of the Bengals' four games. Overall, Uzomah has played 159 snaps to only 92 from Kroft, including a 51 to 19 split Week 4, the game Tyler Eifert broke his ankle. In case you've been sleeping under a rock, tight end is an abject disaster this year, making Uzomah instantly worthy of consideration in your lineups. He is our number 13 tight end this week in a home game against the Dolphins.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
