Odd. Of 160 possible games over 10 seasons, Reiff has missed 14, or 8.75%. 5 of those 14 happened this year in 2021.
In 2020, Tate had 14 receptions. He had 3 prior to injury this year.
In 2021, there were 11 receptions for the non-top-3 receivers - Thomas (5), Taylor (2), Irwin (2), Morgan (2).

Tate isn't a world-beater, but is a solid (inexpensive) 4th WR especially with the Bengals drafting later round WR competition to compete for the off-the-bench snaps (a la Sanu in 3rd & Marvin Jones in 5th).
Reiff has only played all games in a season twice in his career. That's what I mean by not being able to stay healthy.
I think the Bengals can find an upgrade over Tate in the draft or cheap in FA. He's done very little aside from 2019 when he filled in as WR1/2. I'd like a WR with a little more speed and proven production.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
