I guess they would plan to run a lot of 12 personnel in that case.

All 3 of Watson's Pro Bowl years they used 2 TEs. When Stefanski was OC for the Vikings, they used a 2 TEs. The Browns used 2 TEs a good amount in 2020 (used 12 personnel 6th most in the NFL) and 2021, too.

I think they (like the Bengals) lacked any good TEs after their first option in 2022, so it kept them from using it as much as they wanted (Bengals started 2 TEs in both Week 1 and 2 before Sample got hurt).

Probably trying to get back to being able to use 2 TEs without having to rely on a rookie TE performing immediately. Also makes sense when you realize they only have 2 WRs worth a damn. Lol. After Cooper and Peoples-Jones, they didn't have another WR last year that I can find with even 250 career receiving yards even if you include 2022.
