This team primarily runs 3 WRs. The TE is the 4th/5th on the pecking order.
This team was supposed to be a run-oriented team yet has guys who cannot run block (or pass block for that matter).

Given the injuries to Green and Ross, the following receivers need to be starting:
WR - Boyd, Tate
TE - Uzomah, Eifert
RB - Mixon

Once Green is back, put him in Tate's spot and have Tate rotate with one of the TEs depending on whether they want more or less of a receiving threat.

Instead of Eifert, I'd rather see more of Gio out there used as a hybrid slot, as he should have been for the last 3 years now while also rotating in to give Mixon a breather at back. Boyd, Tate, Gio, Uzo, and Mixon. Gio is best when he has space to make cuts, not slamming up the middle 5 times a game. Its not even trying to get the most of his contract, but out of his skillset that the Bengals have ignored for far too long.
