Fantasy Impact
Uzomah was carted off the field on Thursday, and the initial reports were pessimistic about a potentially serious Achilles injury. Unfortunately, those fears were confirmed on Friday. Through two games this season, Uzomah caught eight of his 11 targets for 87 yards and a touchdown. With Uzomah out, Drew Sample is expected to step in as the starting tight end in Cincinnati.
