Uzomah is at this point a fancy backup tight end and has been banged up. With all three Jets wide receivers now healthy, Uzomah's involvement is limited despite having boomed in the Lions game when multiple receivers were injured. Mason Taylor (three games back from injury with 63%, 70%, and 67% route rates) and Kony Ealy (high draft capital) are competing for targets ahead of him.

Uzomah holds a unique historical stat: he caught Andy Dalton's final touchdown pass as a Bengal on December 29, 2019 (33-23 win over Cleveland) and Joe Burrow's first touchdown pass as a Bengal on September 17, 2020 (35-30 loss to Cleveland). Both scores came against the same division rival, making him the only player to hold this distinction in Bengals history.
