Uzomah failed to record a catch in Sunday's 24-10 win against the Steelers.

Uzomah was targeted just once in the contest. While the veteran tight end played on a healthy 70 percent of Cincinnati's offensive snaps, he continues to be an afterthought on a team flush with talented pass catchers. Uzomah can be safely ignored for fantasy purposes going forward unless his involvement in the Bengals' offense drastically changes. Uzomah will look to turn things around Thursday in a Week 4 matchup against the Jaguars.

Parham caught his lone target for 19 yards in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Chiefs.

Parham has received just two targets through three games, and this was his first reception of the year. The 24-year-old tight end has recorded between 45 and 51 percent of the offensive snaps in each contest this season. Jared Cook has logged at least 56 percent in each matchup.

The Seahawks cut Jacobson from the practice squad Tuesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

The Seahawks signed tight end Jace Sternberger to the practice squad to replace Jacobson, who is looking to convert his 6-foot-7, 244-pound frame and his basketball athleticism to the football field.

The Packers signed Davis from the Colts' practice squad Tuesday.

Davis appeared in eight games as a rookie with the Jaguars last season. After being released by Jacksonville following the 2021 training camp, the second-year tight end signed with the Colts' practice squad. The Packers let go of 2019 third-round pick Jace Sternberger following his two-game suspension and recently placed Dominique Dafney (hip) on IR, so Davis should provide some much-needed depth to their tight end room.

The Cowboys won't activate McKeon (ankle) from the short-term injured reserve this week, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

McKeon has been sidelined for three weeks, so he's eligible to return from IR at any point. However, his ankle doesn't appear ready yet. The second-year pro appeared in 14 games for the Cowboys during his rookie campaign.

The Colts signed Wells to their practice squad Tuesday.

Wells spent time with the Patriots and Falcons this preseason. After failing to make the 53-man roster for either team, the 26-year-old latched on with Atlanta's practice squad. He will look to make his regular-season NFL debut for the Colts this year.

Fortson reeled in his two targets for seven yards and a touchdown Sunday versus the Chargers.

Fortson's receptions give him three in the last two weeks, though his snap counts (no more than seven) reveal that he remains primarily involved in very specific formations and red-zone work. He's still behind each of the other three tight ends in terms of snap share and figures to remain that way. However, Fortson's production, when he's called upon, should put him in the good graces of the coaching staff.

Moreau caught one of two targets for eight yards in Sunday's 31-28 overtime victory over the Dolphins.

Moreau has tallied three receptions for 42 yards and a score on five targets over the past two weeks, and he's logged at least 37 offensive snaps in all three of the Raiders' wins. He's the obvious No. 2 option at tight end behind Darren Waller, though fullback Alec Ingold vultured a one-yard touchdown catch against Miami.

Smythe failed to secure his lone target during Sunday's overtime loss to the Raiders.

Smythe occupies a clear back seat behind top receiving tight end Mike Gesicki, who earned 12 targets from fill-in quarterback Jacoby Brissett in Week 3. Though the fourth-year pro has proven a relatively capable receiver when called upon, the presence of Gesicki deprives him of any chance at seeing regular opportunities. Even in most fantasy formats that feature multiple starting TEs, Smythe can safely be left on the waiver wire.

Pruitt recorded one reception on one target for seven yards in Sunday's Week 3 win over the Colts.

Pruitt was on the field for just over half of the team's offensive snaps as Anthony Firkser (knee) remained sidelined. His only reception of the game came relatively late in the fourth quarter, when he converted a first down to keep alive a drive that ultimately resulted in a field goal. Pruitt is primarily utilized as a blocker, though he did log three receptions in Week 2 against Seattle.
