Uzomah, in his seventh NFL season, is on track for a career year. The former Auburn Tiger’s 5 touchdowns and average of 2.9 receptions per game are career bests. Uzomah already has 40 catches on the year, just 3 shy of his career-high 43 notched in 2018. Yardage-wise, his 2021 total of 425 yards through 14 games is just 14 yards behind his 2018 mark of 439 yards in 16 games.
Uzomah’s Bengals are 8-6 and face another 8-6 squad, the Baltimore Ravens, on Sunday. The game is set for 1 p.m. ET.
