Hudson caught both of his targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers. Hudson played just 11 percent of the Bengals' 82 offensive snaps Sunday, a substantial dip in snap share after he averaged a 26 percent snap share over Cincinnati's previous three contests. Operating as the No. 3 tight end behind teammates Mike Gesicki and Drew Sample, Hudson has totaled just 12 receptions for 87 yards and a touchdown across seven games this season. The 30-year-old should remain off the fantasy radar after the team's Week 12 bye when the Bengals' host the Steelers on Dec. 1.

Hudson brought in six of seven targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in the Bengals' 35-34 loss to the Ravens on Thursday night. The tight end finished third in receptions and receiving yards on the Bengals for the night, and he had two more catches than position mate Mike Gesicki on two fewer targets. Hudson had just recorded his first two catches since Week 1 in Sunday's win over the Raiders, so Thursday's numbers were season highs across the board and included his first touchdown of the campaign on a three-yard grab late in the first half. It's still difficult to trust Hudson's week-to-week involvement considering Gesicki's presence, however, leaving the former with an uncertain fantasy outlook for a Week 11 road matchup against the Chargers on Sunday night, Nov. 17.

Hudson played 20 of the Bengals' 74 snaps on offense and finished with two catches for 14 yards on three targets in Sunday's 41-24 win over the Raiders. Hudson recorded his first pair of receptions since Week 1 and benefited from more snaps than usual in part due to rookie tight end Erick All (knee) sustaining what was ultimately determined to be a season-ending ACL tear during the contest. With All out of the mix, Hudson could continue to see a slightly elevated role as the Bengals' No. 2 pass-catching tight end behind Mike Gesicki.

Hudson (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Ravens. Hudson was a full participant at each practice during Week 5 prep and didn't have an injury designation. However, the reserve tight end will remain sidelined for a fourth straight game. Tanner McLachlan (coach's decision) is also inactive, so Mike Gesicki, Erick All and Drew Sample are the Bengals' active tight ends versus Baltimore.

Hudson (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice session. Hudson has been sidelined since Week 1 due to a knee injury, but it appears the 29-year-old will be good to go for Sunday's game against the Ravens. He played 22 snaps (nine on offense, 13 on special teams) and caught two passes (on three targets) for 18 yards in Week 1. It's unclear how Hudson will fit into the offense, especially with backups Erick All and Drew Sample both seeing more snaps than starter Mike Gesicki in Week 4 against the Panthers.
