It is not easy to find a All-Pro/Hall of Fame level TE like Gronk/Kelce/Kittle. And if you don't have one of those you don't have a receiving weapon as good as a WR. We already have Uzomah. If he was targeted more often then he would have receiving numbers equal to pretty much any TE other than the very elite. He doen't have low numbers because he can't get open. He has low numbers because he is usually the #4 option behind 3 VERY GOOD wide receivers. I just don't believe Bengal coaches are upset because they can't take more targets away from Higgins/Boyd/Chase in order to throw to a TE.
