I think that is completely by design in his offensive system, as he only targets the TE on about 10-12% of offensive snaps.  Hurst had a good year for a Bengals TE, despite missing 4 games due to injury.

On the year he had 65 receptions for 555 yards, 3 TD, 8.55 yds/rec with 33 1st downs. Basically, he moved the chains every other time he touched the ball.  If you project those numbers to cover the 4 games he missed, he might have had 78 receptions for 666 yards, 4 TD and 40 1st downs.

Uzomah on the other hand went down the tubes after getting his payday in NY  21 receptions for 232 yards 2 TD, 10 1st downs.  The only upside is an 11 yards per catch average.
