Sure, you can do an incentive-laden contract to offset the cap hit but at the end of the day, TE1 needs to be available for more than half the season, and Eifert is unfortunately not reliable enough for that. I'd prefer the Bengals not take that risk and instead pursue a different TE. Maybe Jared Cook, maybe a draft pick, whatever.
Hey, I'm with you on that.
But this was a fluke injury that would've happened to anyone and everyone; he has bad luck, sure, but every player in the league risks the same as Eifert did.
