It really started to look like Joe Burrow and Hurst were developing a great connection right before he was hurt. I know the stats for CJ and Hurst were "similar" but he just seems to fit better in the offense. No disrespect to CJ who was an amazing person and a solid TE.



Now I am all for rebuilding the TE room because it is getting stale... not to mention I will always vote to continue to give Joe Burrow weapons.

I believe all 3 of Hurst, Sample, and Wilcox are FAs this coming offseason, right?
Even if the Bengals re-sign Hurst, I would definitely spend no less than a mid-round pick on a TE to come in and be TE2.
I'd spend a 1st or 2nd rounder on a TE to be TE1 if Hurst isn't re-signed.
