Uzomah's teammate Tyler Eifert (back) won't play in Sunday's game against Dallas, Paul Dehner Jr. of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports
Uzomah and Tyler Kroft both started last week against Miami, with the former logging 42 snaps and the latter handling 44 (out of 70). While the playing time split may have been even, Uzomah held a 5-0 advantage in targets and a 4-0 edge in receptions. The breakdown was similar Week 3 against Denver, making it clear Uzomah is the team's top receiving option at tight end in Eifert's absence. That being said, Eifert could be back as soon as Week 6, considering he's now dealing with a back injury that isn't thought to be overly serious, while his surgically-repaired ankle is actually healthy enough to play on.
