Who Should I Start? Drew Sample or Foster Moreau

Monday, March 11, 4:49 PM

The Cincinnati Bengals re-signed tight end Drew Sample to a three-year, $10.5 million contract extension on Monday, according to a source. Sample will receive $3.5 million in 2024. In his fifth year with the Bengals in 2023, Sample had 22 catches on 27 targets for 163 yards and a career-high two touchdowns in 17 games (10 starts). Tanner Hudson, Mitchell Wilcox and Irv Smith Jr. are all free agents, but one or more of them could be retained or the Bengals could add competition at the position through the NFL draft. The 27-year-old Sample has accumulated just 80 receptions (103 targets) for 621 yards and three touchdowns in his five years in the NFL with Cincy, so it would be unrealistic to expect the Bengals to utilize him as their unquestioned No. 1 pass-catching TE in 2024.

New Orleans Saints tight end Foster Moreau (shoulder) has returned to the game on Sunday after briefly exiting with a shoulder injury. So far, Taysom Hill and Juwan Johnson have taken the bigger snap share when it comes to the tight end spot. Moreau will look to get into the mix during the second half while the Saints lead 14-6.
