The Slot is Dead

I was super high on Yoshi coming into the year, but he's been a dissapointment. Same with Geiski.

Other than Higgins and Chase, we haven't had anyone step up to take control of that WR3 spot. We are getting no production out of the slot and aren't working the middle of the field at all.

For anyone who has paid close enough attention (not me), is it more about the routes being called during the plays or these dudes not getting open quickly enough?

I'm not overly worried given the Bengals are 3-1 these past 4 games compared to 0-3 the first 3.
Plus, I don't think the Bengals will make any move for additional pass catchers before the trade deadline, so we're stuck with who they have.
