Who Should I Start? CJ Uzomah or Will Dissly

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.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly struggled his way through a rough loss in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs against the Houston Texans. Dissly was targeted five times, making two catches for 16 yards total. He dropped a pass while completely wide open and also was unable to catch a rather easy pass that he batted and turned into an interception instead. Dissly came on as a solid and reliable high-floor fantasy tight end in the second half of the season, but he was almost solely responsible for a 14-point swing in the most important game of the season for the Chargers. Dissly signed a three-year deal before the season, so he should be expected back with the Bolts, but they'll likely look for a more traditional pass-catching tight end either in free agency or in the draft.
