Who Should I Start? CJ Uzomah or Albert Okwuegbunam

According to the team, Philadelphia Eagles tight end C.J. Uzomah (abdomen) will not play during the Super Bowl. Uzomah joined Philadelphia's practice squad in December. Across seven contests, he ran just 14 routes and did not see a target. He sustained this injury during their victory over the Dallas Cowboys during Week 17. The 32-year-old was able to log two full practice sessions this week but was unable to turn the corner. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Dallas Goedert to operate as the clear TE1, with Grant Calcaterra serving as the backup.

The Philadelphia Eagles re-signed tight end Albert Okwuegbunam to an undisclosed one-year deal on Thursday, according to a source. Okwuegbunam was scheduled to become a free agent in March, but he'll stick around in Philadelphia for at least another season. The Denver Broncos' former fourth-round pick in 2020 out of Missouri landed with the Eagles before the 2023 campaign but failed to catch his only target in only four games last season. The 25-year-old finished the year on Injured Reserve due to a mysterious hamstring injury. With Dallas Goedert, Jack Stoll and Grant Calcaterra ahead of him on the depth chart, Albert O figures to be facing an uphill battle to make the regular-season roster out of training camp this summer.
