The Eagles have signed veteran TE CJ Uzomah to the active roster.

Related Players: Dallas Goedert, Grant Calcaterra

Probably not the best sign for Goedert's Week 14 availability, as this lends some veteran presence to the passing and blocking game. The Eagles TEs are an easy fade, even in a good matchup against the Panthers.

Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports that evaluations of Dallas Goedert’s knee show that he avoided a major injury. More testing is coming on Monday, but the belief is that Goedert suffered a sprain.

Goedert had three catches for 35 yards and a touchdown in the 24-19 win. He missed three games earlier this year and has 38 catches for 441 yards and two touchdowns on the season, the story pointed out. The Eagles have a winnable game against the Panthers this coming week, so it may make sense to not rush Goedert back into action. The Eagles have also been without DeVonta Smith, and if that trend continues next week, Calcaterra may find himself getting some worthwhile, fantasy targets.

It's tough to say who would benefit if Dallas Goedert missed any time, but it looks like the team is content with rolling Calcaterra and Albert O if Goedert leaves the field. Neither should be on fantasy radars.

Free agent TE CJ Uzomah, the former Bengals and Jets starter, is expected to sign a one-year deal with the Eagles. Uzomah, who flew to Philly today and passed his physical, should bolster their passing attack and give the offense an added weapon.

Uzomah dealt with injuries and was boxed out of a TE1 role by Tyler Conklin in New York, so we shouldn't expect him to impact fantasy this season. The veteran had an 80-target season with Cincinnati in 2021, but that has proven to be a blip on the radar.

One pleasant surprise thus far in camp has TE Tyler Conklin. Coming off his best season of his career last season with the Minnesota Vikings, Conklin has quickly built a strong connection in camp with QB Zach Wilson.

The story went on to say the early look is that Conklin will be a favorite red-zone target for the Jets’ offense. He may quietly have yet another career year in his first season with the Jets. The Jets also have former Bengal Uzomah who is a red zone target himself, along with the rookie Ruckert. Conklin is well down our TE list at 29th, so right now he's only a consideration in deeper leagues, or those that utilize multiple TE slots.

Conklin has played more as a back-up than starter, but has shown he can be fantasy-viable in spurts. He should run behind Uzomah in terms or routes, targets, and catches, and will be asked to block more.

The New York Jets have signed TE C.J. Uzomah to a three-year deal.

The Jets have been bereft of tight end talent and/or health for a few years, so the steady if unspectacular Uzomah is an instant upgrade.

Bengals TE C.J. Uzomah (MCL sprain) told reporters Monday that he feels "really, really good" ahead of Super Bowl LVI. Uzomah also credited Nick Cosgray and his work on his Achilles injury last season in his trust with playing Sunday.

While it is great to hear Uzomah's optimism, the trainers and HC Zac Taylor have final say on his availability. Uzomah's injury is one of the most important to monitor on the offensive side of the ball.

There’s one player who will be added to that group of Bengal players who are stealing the show on offense and its tight end C.J. Uzomah.

The Bengals drafted Uzomah in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft. Uzomah and Tyler Boyd are two of the oldest players on Cincinnati’s roster and both have now played for former head coach Marvin Lewis and current head coach Zac Taylor.

The story went on to say for those who are surprised at Uzomah’s production, his quarterback is not. When Joe Burrow was asked what’s behind his connection with Uzomah this year, he said it started in his rookie season but because of his knee injury no one saw what they could do together. The story added Burrow said Uzomah was his top target before going down with a knee injury. For fantasy going forward, Uzomah likely won't produce many lines like he did this past week against the Ravens: 3-91-1. He's averaging less than three targets a game and looks to be more TD-dependent than anything at this point.

C. J. Uzomah’s rehabilitation from a torn Achilles is going well.

The Cincinnati Bengals tight end updated The Enquirer on his rehab process.

“It’s good, it’s really good. After talking to trainers and people, I’m ahead of schedule,” Uzomah told The Enquirer. “It’s really good. They like the progress with it. I’m walking and doing everything that they are saying. It’s going really well.”

Uzomah is expected to be cleared for full activity in March. The story went on to say Uzomah suffered a season-ending torn Achilles in the team’s Week 2 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Cincinnati placed him on injured reserve on Sept. 18. Prior to his injury, Uzomah was off to the best two-game start of his career. The 6-foot-6 tight end had eight catches for 87 yards and one touchdown in two contests this year. The touchdown ball that he caught versus Cleveland was the first TD pass of quarterback Joe Burrow’s career.
